Intro
A E D E x 2
A
I'm gonna catch me a ride on the subway car
E
That's heading for the Old North Star
D A E
And leave my troubles stranded on the mainland
A
I'm gonna crown the god of night with light
E
And pull myself clean outta sight
D E
And turn the phony world I live to sand
A
I would gladly sail away
E
And never mind a word you say
D A E
They're just the figments of your imagination
A
Cast your riddles at my head
E
About the way I must be fed
D E
Upon your rules and schools of institutions
Chorus
A
Why Lord why
D
Were the mountains built so high?
E D
And the shoals of the Sea
A E
Sometimes get lonely?
A
Why Lord why
D
Must I learn to testify?
E
When all I want to be
D A
Is just a catcher in the rye?
A
It's hard to dream within a scheme
E
That says your soul can't be redeemed
D A E
And Silent Night is heard outside my window
A
Days are long and ways are short
E
And nights are left with no resort
D E
Except to listen to the lonesome wind blow
Chorus
A
Why Lord why
D
Were the mountains built so high?
E D
And the shoals of the Sea
A E
Sometimes get lonely?
A
Why Lord why
D
Must I learn to testify?
E
When all I want to be
D A
Is just a catcher in the rye?
A
If you can't seem to find the aim
E
Of the rules set for the game
D A E
They'll throw you in a school of restitution
A
They'll look you in the eye and grin
E
And say "I'd like to be your friend"
D E
And wear a sign reads "Long Live Execution"
Chorus
A
Why Lord why
D
Were the mountains built so high?
E D
And the shoals of the Sea
A E
Sometimes get lonely?
A
Why Lord why
D
Must I learn to testify?
E
When all I want to be
D A
Is just a catcher in the rye?
