Intro chord: A

A                                      G
A farmer on a tractor plowing in the field
A
Doing all he can to increase the yield
        D                            G          A   (intro riff)
But the more he raises, the more the price goes down
A                                   G
Over at the factory working on the line
A
You do a good job and never fall behind
        D                           G     A
So your quota goes up everytime you turn around
   E                 D                    A
It ain't nothin' new, it's called a Catch 22


Chorus:
D           G    D         G
Heads they win, tails you lose
     A
It's all the same either way you choose
       D             G     D               E
You're damned if you don't, and even if you do
                   A (intro riff twice)
It's still a Catch 22

A                                         G
Tell a man you love him he starts backing up
A
Tell him you don't and he's a love-sick pup
    D                                 G     A
You try to get together, and watch it fall apart
         E               D            A
Hey I've been there too, what a Catch 22


CHORUS


Instrumental:  A    D  E


CHORUS

A                  (intro riff repeats)
Oh, it's a Catch 22
A
No matter what you do, it's a Catch 22
