[Verse]
Am Em
Blackbird on the old church steeple
Am Em Cadd11
Spanish moss hangin' in the settin' sun
C G Am
Every house has got a Bible and a loaded gun
Am Em
We got preachers and politicians
Am Em Cadd11
'Round here it's kinda hard to tell which one
C G Am
Is gonna do more talkin' with a crooked tongue
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em Am
This town's got the good lord shakin' his head
Am Em Cadd11
Lookin' down thinkin' we ain't heard a word he said
Cadd11
A word he said
[Chorus]
C G
Baptized in Southern Gothic
Am Cadd11
In the garden of good and evil
C G
Devil right here, who would've thought it?
Am Cadd11
In a town full of God-fearin' people
C G
Dogs and deadbolts guard the night
Am Cadd11
Nothin' left to do but kneel and pray
C G
We got a church on every corner
Am Cadd11 Am
So why does heaven feel so far away?
Am Em Am Em
MMmmmmm .. .. .. ..
[Verse]
Am Em
Must be somethin' in the muddy water
Am Em Cadd11
Turns the whisky 'bout as sweet as sin
C G Am
Every drunk in town can sing a brown bag hymn
Am Em
Good fences make good neighbors
Am Em Cadd11
Good neighbors make good lovers too
C G Am
When your man ain't home any man will do
[Bridge]
Am Em
High on homegrown, smokin' that brimstone
Am Em
Mama ain't stoppin', poppin' that cotton
Cadd11 G Am
No happy ever after, waitin' on the rapture now
[Chorus]
C G
Baptized in Southern Gothic
Am Cadd11
In the garden of good and evil
C G
Devil right here, who would've thought it?
Am Cadd11
In a town full of God-fearin' people
C G
Dogs and deadbolts guard the night
Am Cadd11
Nothin' left to do but kneel and pray
C G
We got a church on every corner
Am Cadd11 Am
So why does heaven feel so far away?
Am Em Am Em
Far away .. .. .. ..
