Intro: D, G, Bm, A, G, D

        D                            G
In a thousand empty bottles� in a hundred burned out cars 
      Bm                 A                   G              D
In a house up in the Catskills� in all the honky-tonks and bars 
         D                                    G
All the way across the airwaves, and all the way around this land 
     Bm                A      G                         D  G  Bm  A  G
The ghost of Richard Manuel is� walking like a natural man

            D                                G
Well last night around the campfire� we got high on homemade wine 
     Bm                 A                  G                 D
We passed around the guitar� and tried to sing �Whispering Pines� 
         D                             G
And in every sweet falsetto� that was more than I could stand 
         Bm                A        G                         D  G  Bm  A  G
Was the ghost of Richard Manuel just� walking like a natural man 

           D                        G
Along the keys of my piano� in the kick and in the snare 
      Bm                    A                       G                     D
In getting your kicks off of parlor tricks� and in a hound dog�s hungry stare 
                    D                        G
Well He�s getting frozen up in Canada, and burned in the south land 
        Bm              A         G                         D  G  Bm  A  G
But the ghost of Richard Manuel still� walking like a natural man 

Short Break: D   G   Bm   A   G

           D                                      G
There�s a room full of nicotine poets... three harmony guitars 
         Bm           A          G   D
And a shopworn tack piano� with 32 bars                                     
            D                                   G
And the Victrola�s in the corner� spinning �Alexander�s Ragtime Band� 
         Bm                A       G                        D
And the ghost of Richard Manuel is� walking like a natural man 
            G                Bm   A 
Hey, Hey Richard� Hey, Hey Richard
   G                                  A          G         D
Richard won�t you sing us� �Tears of Rage� just one more time
D   G   Bm   A   G
D   G   Bm   A   G   D�
