[Verse I] G there was a man that devised a plan D to keep our plans alive Em when the news said C this country's dead
G but his music still survived D when there's a water gate Em and we're all hatin' C the rest seems kinda silly G D don't y'all think it's time Em C to stop pickin' on willie [Verse II] G now this silent country D step-up fare Em that they dragged on forever C big old live-wire where other's died G from some undercover endeavour D on the world stage Em the crowd raged C when the team stopped willie G D don't y'all think it's time Em C to stop pickin' on willie [Chorus] G Stop
D pickin on Willie Em can't you see a hero in disguise? C stop G pickin' on willie D let your maker be the judge Em through his own eyes C let your maker be the judge through his own eyes [Verse III] G some flag burning, commie preacher D demonstrater don't have to pay a dime Em Saddam Hussein lost his brain C and the whole world tried to kill him G D don't y'all think it's time Em C to stop pickin' on willie [Chorus] G Stop D pickin on Willie Em can't you see a hero in disguise? C stop G pickin' on willie D let your maker be the judge Em through his own eyes C let your maker be the judge through his own eyes
