[Intro]
Em C G x2
[Verse 1]
Em C G
Walked a crooked road for a crooked mile
Em C G
Showed my crooked teeth and my crooked smile
Em C G
I read a cuckoo clock on a crooked wall
Em D G
Turns out it's all crooked, y'all
[Refrain]
Am Em D G
And I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Em D G
Turns out that I'm crooked too
[Instrumental]
|Em |C |G
[Verse 2]
Em C G
I read a crooked headline on a crooked page
Em C G
There's a crooked leader on a crooked stage
Em C G
But he seems to think he's standin' tall
Em D G
Turns out it's all crooked, y'all
[Refrain]
Am Em D G
And I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Em D G
Turns out that I'm crooked too
[Instrumental]
|Am |G |D |Am |G |F |D
|Em |C |G x2
[Verse 3]
(soft)
Em C G
So when you stand before that setting sun
Em C G
And the needle's broken and the record's spun
Em C G
You'll hear a stampede from a cattle call
Em D G
Turns out it's all crooked, y'all
Em D G
Oh, it turns out it's all crooked, y'all

Fantastic job. Love this song. Thanks so much for this addition. The work is even more appreciated given that I wouldn’t stand a chance of doing it myself. Thanks so much for the work.
