This song starts off with a guitar and keyboard instrumental in A before switching to D.

I only tabbed the guitar riff just before it switches to D.

And the sign says long haired freaky people need not apply

D A G A

So I tucked my hair under my hat and I went in to ask him why

Bm G

He said you look like a fine outstanding young man, I think you'll do

D A G A

So I took off my hat and said I-magine that, huh me working for you

Chorus:

D C G D G

Signs, signs, everywhere a sign blockin' up the scenery, breakin my

mind

D A C D

Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign? (Dsus}

C G D G

And the sign says all trespassers will be shot on sight

D A G A

So I jumped the fence and yelled at the house hey, what gives you the right

Bm G

To put up a fence to keep me out or to keep mother nature in

D A G A

If God were here he'd tell it to your face, man you're some kind of

sinner

D A G

But then they passed around the plate at the end of it all, I didn't

A Bm G

have a penny to pay, So I got me a pen and paper, and I made out my own

little sign

D A G A

I said thank you, Lord, for thinkin' 'bout me, I'm alive and doin' fine

{Repeat Chorus}
