Rodriguez

Inner City Blues

by Rodriguez
Rodriguez

Biography:

At least five artists share the name Rodriquez.

1) Sixto Diaz Rodriguez (also known as Rodriguez or as Jesus Rodriguez) is an American folk musician, born in Detroit, Michigan on July 10, 1942. He was named 'Sixto' (pronounced seex-toe) because he was the sixth child in his family. Rodriguez's parents were middle-class immigrants from Mexico, who left in the 1920s. In most of his songs he takes a political stance on the cruelties facing the inner city poor.

[Intro]
E7 A7

E7
Going down a dirty inner city side road
A7
I plotted
E7
Madness passed me by, she smiled hi
A7
I nodded
E7 B7
Looked up as the sky began to cry
E7
She shot it

E7 A7
Met a girl from Dearborn, early six o'clock this morn
E7
A cold fact
A7
Asked about her bag, suburbia's such a drag
E7
Won't go back

G D A E
'Cos Papa don't allow no new ideas here
G D A E
And now he sees the news, but the picture's not too clear.

A
Mama, Papa, stop, treasure what you got, soon you may be caught
E7
Without it
A
The curfew's set for eight, will it ever all be straight
E7
I doubt it

E7
Seven jealous fools playing by her rules
A7
Can't believe her
E7
He feels so in between, can't break the scene
A7
It would grieve her
E7 B7
And that's the reason why he must cry
E7
He'll never leave her

E7 A7
Crooked children, yellow chalk, writing on the concrete walk
E7
Their king died
A7
Drinking from a Judas cup, looking down but seeing up
E7
Sweet red wine

G D A E
'Cos Papa don't allow no new ideas here
G D A E
And now hear the music, but the words don't sound too clear.

A
Mama, Papa, stop, treasure what you got, soon you may be caught
E7
Without it
A
The curfew's set for eight, will it ever all be straight
E7
I doubt it

E7
Going down a dusty, Georgian side road
A7
I wonder
E7 B7
The wind splashed in my face, can smell a trace
E7
Of thunder
