April The 14Th Part 1

by Gillian Welch
Gillian Welch

Biography:

Gillian Howard Welch (born October 2, 1967) is an American singer-songwriter. She performs with her musical partner, guitarist David Rawlings. Their sparse and dark musical style, which combines elements of Appalachian music, bluegrass, country and Americana, is described by The New Yorker as "at once innovative and obliquely reminiscent of past rural forms."

Welch and Rawlings have collaborated on seven critically acclaimed albums, five released under her name, and two released under the name Dave Rawlings Machine.

Intro: D,Am,C,G

Bm
When the iceberg hit,
Am
Oh they must have known,
C
God moves on the water
G
Like Casey Jones.

Bm
So I walked downtown
Am
On my telephone,
C
And took a lazy turn
G D
Through the redeye zone.

Bm
It was a five-band bill,
Am
A two-dollar show.
C
I saw the van out in front
G
From Idaho,

Bm
And the girl passed out
Am
In the backseat trash.
C
There was no way they'd make
G D
Even a half a tank of gas.

Bm
They looked sick and stoned
Am
And strangely dressed.
C
And no one showed
G
From the local press.

Bm
But I watched them walk
Am
Through the bottom land,
C
And I wished I played
G C
In a rock & roll band.

Break: D,Am,C,G

D Am C
... Hey, hey,
G D Am C, G
It was the fourteenth day in April.

Bm
Well they closed it down,
Am
With the sails in rags.
C
And they swept up the fags
G
And the local rags.

Bm
Threw the plastic cups
Am
In the plastic bags,
C
And the cooks cleaned the kitchen
G C
With the staggers and the jags.

Break: D,Am,C,G

Bm
Ruination day,
Am
And the sky was red.
C
I went back to work,
G
And back to bed.

Bm
And the iceberg broke,
Am
And the Okies fled,
C
And the Great Emancipator
G D
Took a bullet in the back of the head...


For the 2nd guitar just find a 1930s Epiphone and mess around in G.
