[Verse 1]
G C
The back alley's full of rain
G
And everything's shining
C
As holy as she can be
G
The trick's in the timing

[Verse 2]
C
Free as a morning bird
G
Fragile as china
C
She's stuck in the weakest heart
G
Of South Carolina

[Chorus]
Cm
Where all of the naked boys
Bm
Lay down beside her
Am
Sing her the saddest song
G
All caught in the briars

[Verse 3]
Cm
I never meant to fall
Bm
So hard in the doorway
Am
And all the sinners here
D
Have crosses for Sunday

[Verse 4]
Cm
Kissed at the county fair
Bm
Frisked in the city
Am
Which proves as an answered prayer
G
But ain't it a pity

[Chorus]
C
Where all of the naked boys
G
Lay down beside her
C
Sing her the saddest song
G
All caught in the briars

[Sundown]
C
There go the cops with the tomcat teeth
G
Here come the church mice trying too hard
C
She had a way to be kind with words
G
I had a knife in the back of my car

C
Nobody knows when the rain may come
G
Nobody wants wake up and be cruel
C
She locked the door and the sun went down
G
In South Carolina with nothing to lose

Cm Bm
All of her naked boys
Am G
And not even I was true
