Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 An angel  on a Harley
 Pulls across to greet a fellow rolling stone
 Puts his bike  up on it's stand
 Leans back and then extends
 A scarred and greasy hand...he  said
 How ya doin bro?...where ya been?...where ya goin'?
 Then he takes  your hand
 In some strange Californian handshake
 And breaks the bone
  Have a nice day
 A housewife  from Encino
 Whose husband's on the golf course
 With his book  of rules
 Breaks  and makes a 'U' and idles back
 To take a second look at you
You  flex your rod
 Fish takes the hook
 Sweet vodka  and tobacco in her breath
 Another number in your little black book
 These are the pros and cons of hitchhiking
 These are the pros and cons of hitchhiking
 Oh babe, I must be dreaming
 I'm standing  on the leading edge
 The Eastern seaboard spread before my eyes
 "Jump"  says Yoko Ono
 "I'm too scared and too good looking" I cried
 "Go  on", she says
 "Why don't you give it a try?
 Why  prolong the agony all men must die"
 Do you remember Dick Tracy?
 Do you remember Shane?
 And mother wants you
 Could you see  him selling tickets
 Where the buzzard circles over hane]
 The body on the plain
 Did you understand  the music Yoko
 Or was it all in vain?
 The bitch  said something mystical "Herro"
 So I stepped  back on the kerb again
 These are the pros and cons of hitchhiking
 These are the pros and cons of hitchhiking
 Oh babe, I must be dreaming  again
 These are the pros and cons of hitchhiking
