Biography:
Jeffrey Foucault (born January 1976 in Janesville, Wisconsin) is an American singer-songwriter grown out of the americana/folk troubadour tradition. Foucault's musical career was seeded at seventeen, when he began playing John Prine tunes on his father's beat up mail-order guitar, and spent long evenings in his bedroom, spinning piles of old records on a hand-me-down turntable. When he was 18 he stole a copy of Townes Van Zandt: Live and Obscure from a friend

CAPO 3
Em
The snow falls on the passes
And it covers up the rails
D Em
And the hired men ride up to make them clean
Em
It's a winter camp and a frozen damp
And a shovel in your hand
D Em
And a coal train comes rumbling through the seam
Am
That morning came up shining
G
Clear and sharp as broken glass
D Em
We were riding for the tracks at Sugaree
Am
All holler and high spirit
G
And the devil take the last
D Em
And Henry lay a wager then to me
Em
He said "I've got five dollars
And a whiskey at the bar
D Em
Says I make the tracks ahead of you"
Em
So we touched our horses up
Sent them running down the hill
D Em
And I did something I never meant to do
Am
Well I cut hard behind him
Em
From his blind side I come around
D Em
Just as we were going down the scree
Am Em
I only meant to scare him but he tumbled to the ground
D Em
And he broke his neck beneath the doubletree
G D Em
So you take him cut him out in a length of pine
G D
Lay him out in a suit of clothes
G C
Best that you can find
G D Em
Lay his body gentle in the ground
C D
And say a prayer for Henry
G Em
Before you lay him down
Em
The night before poor Henry died
We slept on open ground
D Em
The circus of the stars a blaze of white
Em
Henry was the best friend that I ever had
G D Em
And I slept still as a child that night
Em
The snow falls on the passes
And it covers up the rails
D Em
And the hired men ride up to make them clean
Em
It's a winter camp and a frozen damp
And a shovel in your hand
D Em
And a coal train comes rumbling through the seam
Am
