Met myself a common county welfare line

I was a-feelin' strung out, hung out on the line

All I want, all I want is to write myself a tune
CHORUS:

Wrote a song for everyone--
C D7 G
When I couldn't even talk to you
Verse 2:
Got myself arrested, wound me up in jail
Richmond 'bout to blow up, communication fails
If you see the answer, now's the time to say
All I want, all I want is to get you down to pray
(chorus)
(instrumental, same pattern as verses)
(chorus)
Verse 3:
Saw the people standin' a thousand years in chains
Somebody said it's a-different now; look, it's just the same
Pharaohs spin the message round and round the truth
They could have saved a million people, how can I tell you?
(repeat chorus 3 times; third time, with extra measure and instrumental
break, sing "cou-ou-ou-ou-ouldn't")

Wrote A Song For Everyone(J.C. Fogerty)
Met myself a comin' county welfare line.
I was feelin' strung out, Hung out on the line.
Saw myself a goin', down to war in June.
All I want, All I want is to write myself a tune.
CHORUS:
Wrote A Song For Ev'ryone,
Wrote a song for truth.
Wrote A Song For Ev'ryone
And I couldn't even talk to you.
Got myself arrested, Wound me up in jail.
Richmond 'bout to blow up, Communication failed.
If you see the answer, now's the time to say.
All I want, All I want is to get you down to pray.
CHORUS
CHORUS
Saw the people standin' thousand years in chains.
Somebody said it's diff'rent now, look, it's just the same.
Pharoahs spin the message, round and round the truth.
They could have saved a million people, How can I tell you?
