Chorus:
A E A
Lee Harvey was a friend of mine,
D A
He used to take me fishin' all the time.
D A F#m
He used to throw a ball to me when I was just a kid,
A E A
They say he shot the president, but I don't think he did.
Verse 1:
A D A
Well, I was born in Dallas in nineteen fifty-two,
A E
And Lee Harvey lived across the street on Ripley Avenue.
D A F#m
He used to throw a ball to me when I was just a kid,
A E A
They say he shot the president, but I don't think he did.
Chorus
Verse 2: Well, I've seen that picture of him holdin' pamphlets and a gun, And there's shadows pointin' every which way, but only just one sun. Someone faked that photo and then snuck away and hid, They say he shot the president, but I don't think he did.
A E A
Lee Harvey was a friend of mine.
Verse 3: Well, I saw it all on TV, Lee Harvey got gunned down, And he was killed off by Jack Ruby, the biggest sleaze in town. He stuck a gun into his ribs and said, "Here's lookin' at you, kid," Jack Ruby killed Lee Harvey - my TV proved he did.
Chorus
A E ALee Harvey was a friend of mine.
