[Intro]

(4 bars)


[Verse 1]

       (Bm)
Take a little walk to the edge of 
town and go across the tracks
Where the viaduct looms like a bird 
of doom as it shifts and cracks
      Em
Where secrets lie in the border 
fires in the humming wires
Hey man you know you're never coming
 Bm
 back
Past the square past the bridge past
 the mills past the stacks
     F#7
On a gathering storm comes a tall 
handsome man
     E7
In a dusty black coat with a red 
right hand
Bm


[Verse 2]

      (Bm)
He'll wrap you in his arms tell you 
that you've been a good boy
Continues after the ad
He'll rekindle all the dreams it 
took you a lifetime to destroy
      Em
He'll reach deep into the hole heal 
your shrinking soul
But there won't be a single thing 
             Bm
that you can do
He's a God he's a man he's a ghost 
he's a gu-ru
        F#7
They're whispering his name through 
this disappearing land
    E7
But hidden in his coat is a red 
right hand
Bm


[Verse 3]

    (Bm)
You don't have no money he'll get 
you some
You don't have no car he'll get you 
one
    Em
You don't have no self respect you 
feel like an insect
Well don't you worry buddy 'cause 
        Bm
here he comes
Through the ghettos and the barrio 
and the bowery and the slum
  F#7
A shadow is cast wherever he stands
E7
Stacks of green paper in his red 
right hand
Bm

[Verse 4]

       (Bm)
You'll see him in your nightmares 
you'll see him in your dreams
He'll appear out of nowhere but he 
ain't what he seems
Em
  You'll see him in your head on the
 TV screen
Hey buddy I'm warning you to turn it
     Bm
 off
He's a ghost he's a God he's a man 
he's a gu-ru
           F#7
You're one microscopic cog in his 
catastrophic plan
   E7
De-signed and directed by his red 
right hand
