The Old Man Down The Road

Creedence Clearwater Revival


Tom: G

Em
He take the thunder from the mountain
                  G
He take the lightning from the sky
                     A
He bring the strong man to his bended knee
                    Em
He make the young girls mama cry

You got to hidey-hide
                  G
You got to jump and run
                  A
You got to hidey hidey-hide
        C             D               Em
The old man's down the road

He got the voices speakin' riddles
                  G
He got the eye as black as coal
               A
He got a suitcase covered with rattlesnake hide
             Em
And he stand right in the road

You got to hidey-hide
                  G
You got to jump and run away
                  A
You got to hidey hidey-hide
          C            D             Em
The old man's down the road

He make the river call your lover
                     G
He make the barking of the hound
              A
Put the shadow across the window
                 Em
When the old man comes around

You got to hidey-hide
                  G
You got to jump and run again
                  A
You got to hidey hidey-hide
         C             D             Em
The old man's down the road
        C               D              Em
The old man is down the road
        C               D               Em
The old man is down the road
