D
[Verse 1]
Am D
I know what it means to get knocked down drunk,
Am D
I was lying in a bush by the coal,
Am
where the river runs deep
G
& the demons don't sleep
D
& the water's obscured by the smoke.
Am D
Well I drug myself to the river's edge
Am D
& I drank like a dog on the sand.
Am
It burned my tongue,
G
my whole head gets spun
D
& I stood on the stone
D
& I spoke to the wind and the rain.
[Bridge]
Am D
Am D
[Chorus]
Am D
Said I know what it means to get left for dead,
Am D
when the saints rise up at the sound.
Am
When the spirits don't move in
G
their chains and the shoes
D
& the crack of the guns all around.
Am D
I know how it is to get all dressed up,
Am D
where nobody would know where to go.
Am
With a fifth in your vest,
G
& some pills on your tongue
D
& a gun looking out across
the Valley of the Shadow below, oh.
[Bridge]
Am D
Am D
[Verse 2]
Am
Well I preached to the bums
D
and I preached to the birds
Am D
til the crowd had started to form.
Am
My disciples that came,
G
through the wind and the rain
D
& the rags in their jackets all torn.
Am D
Well I prophesized of the things to come
Am D
& I jumped like a bug on a wall,
Am
til my head it was through
G
with the river's strange brew
D
& I sunk to my knees, in the breeze,
Am
& I started to pray,
D
I said hey!
Am D
You know I ain't got a dang thing to say,
Am G
with a head full of booze and nothing to loose
D
for a creature was made out of clay, hey!
[Bridge]
