Came across that piece on sugarman.org. An awesome site when you want to know
about Sixto Rodriguez. However, listening to the song and watching some videos I
reckon the version with the 7 chords much more fits what he plays. Check it out

Born in the troubled city
Em A Em7 A7
In Rock and Roll, USA
Em A Em7 A7
In the shadow of the tallest building
Em A Em7 A7
I vowed I would break away
Em A Em7 A7
Listened to the Sunday actors
Em A Em7
But all they would ever say
Em
That you can't get away from it
A Em A
No you can't get away
Em
No you can't get away from it
A Em
No you can't get away
Em A Em7 A7
Schooled on the city sidewalks
Em A Em7 A7
Coldness at every turn
Em A Em7 A7
Knew I had to find the exits
Em A Em7 A7
I never, ever would return
Em A Em7 A7
Scoffed at the prophet's omens
Em A Em7 A7
That said I would live to learn
Em A Em7
That you can't get away from it
Em. A
no you can't get away
Em. A.
no you can't get away from it
Em. A
no you can't get away

Em A Em7 A7
Going unaided (up 80?) toward the west coast
Em A Em7 A7
Stopped in the sleepy town
Em A Em7 A7
Left my change and walked out
Em A Em7 A7
I didn't even turn around
Em A Em7 A7
What they were getting next to
Em A Em7 A7
Was that old familiar sound
Em A Em7 A7
That you can't get away from it
Em. A
no you can't get away
Em. A
no you can't get away from it
Em. A
no you can't get away
Em A Em7 A7
In a hotel room in Amsterdam
Em A Em7 A7
On a wild and windy August night
Em A Em7 A7
As a cloud passed over a cold moon
Em A Em7 A7
My heart was seized with terror and fright
Em A Em7 A7
Seeping up through the floorboards
Em A Em7 A7
Coming in through the walls
Em A Em7 A7
Coming in through the doorway
Em A Em7 A7
Ringing up and down the halls
Em A Em7
That you can't get away from it
Em
no you can't get away
A Em A7
no you can't get away from it
Em A Em7 A7
no you can't get away
Em A
no you can't get away
Em A
no you can't get away
Em A
no you can't get away...
