Em 
Go on and look me in the eye if you think you can 
Ever seen a better dead rebel man 

G                         C       G       
Hey little boy don't you know my name 
G                         C        G 
Hey little boy don't you know my name 
Em 
I've been up and down that road before 

I've been kickin' up dust before you were born 
G                          C      G 
Hey little boy don't you know my name 
G                         C       G 
Hey little boy don't you know my name 

C  
September of 1955 
            G  
It was 24 years till the day I died 
D                                           Em 
You know my face from the Hollywood silver screen 
C 
I was just lookin' for another fast ride 
      G 
I didn't think I wouldn't make it back alive 
D                                      Em 
And now you know me as the ghost of Jimmy Dean 
         C                D                  Em 
I'm the baddest boy that your eyes have ever seen 

  
Em 
The original rebel without a cause 

I was raising hell, I was breaking laws 
G                         C       G 
Hey little boy don't you know my name 
G                        C        G 
Hey little boy don't you know my name

Hey little boy don't you know my name 
G                         C       G
