Johnny Cash - Sold Out Of Flagpoles: chords

   F
I walked down past the courthouse
      A#
square three blocks or maybe four
D#
Run into my old friend there who
                       G#
runs a handy hardware store

I said morning Lon what's the good word
He said Abraham Lincoln Lone
Ranger Mickey Mouse and
I'm sold out of flagpoles

I popped the top off a soda pop
laid a quarter on the bar
I said inflation is a dirty dog
my payday sure isn’t going far

Liberty said Lonnie
e Pluribus Uni in God we trust
and I'm sold out of flagpoles

I said hey Lonnie did you see
Evel Knievel jumping on TV
Jumped 13 buses with his machine
reckon he could jump 14

No doubt said Lonnie
winners keep on winning
Even losers win sometimes
and I'm sold out of flagpoles

Isn’t this been a year
I said for frost and blight
and flood and drought
Twice as many tornadoes reckon
it's all caused by fallout

No it's the season
said Lonnie they change
Wind's going to blow always
did and I'm sold out of flagpoles

Hey what do you think
about the sheriff's daughter
Running' off with the preacher's son
The sheriff's wife had to hold
him back from going after them with his gun

Boys and girls said
Lonnie will get together
Everything's normal and
I'm sold out of flagpoles
And I'm sold out of flagpoles
sold out of flagpoles sold out of flagpoles
