Phil Ochs – Ballad Of William Worthy chords
Chords:
Here's my take on Phil Ochs' "Ballad of William Worthy." I'm not sure if it's entirely correct, so any feedback/rating would be appreciated... Capo: 2nd fretC G C C7Well, it's of a bold reporter whose story I will tellF C C7He went down to the Cuban land, the nearest place to hellF C AmHe'd been there many times before, but now the law does sayC G7 C C7The only way to Cuba is with the CIAChorus:F C William Worthy isn't worthy to enter our doorG C C7Went down to Cuba, he's not American anymoreF C AmBut somehow it is strange to hear the State Department sayC G7 C You are living in the free world, in the free world you must stayFive thousand dollars or a five year sentence may well be For a man who had the nerve to think that travelin' is free Oh why'd he waste his time to see a dictator's reign When he could have seen democracy by travelin' on to Spain? Chorus So come all you good travelers and fellow-travelers, too Yes and travel all around the world, see every country through I'd surely like to come along and see what may be new But my passport's disappearing as I sing these words to you Well, there really is no need to travel to these evil lands Yes, and though the list grows larger you must try to understand Try hard not to be surprised if someday you should hear The whole world is off limits, visit Disneyland this year Chorus
