Biography:
Patricia Lee "Patti" Smith (born December 30, 1946) is an American singer, poet and visual artist who was a highly influential component of the New York punk rock movement, particularly with her 1975 début album 'Horses'. Called the "Godmother of Punk", she integrated the beat poetry performance style with three-chord rock.

Capo 2
[Verse 1]
Em C G B Em C F
Mother as I write the sun dissolves
Em C G B
Blood life streaming cross my hand
Em C F
And these words, these words
Em C G B
Hope dashed immortal hope
Em C F
Hope streaking the canvas sky
[Chorus]

Em C G B
We joined the long caravan
Em C F
Hungry dreaming going west
Em C G B
Just for work just to get a job
Em C
And we never got lucky

We just forged on
Em C G B
And the dust the endless dust
Em C F
Like a plague it covered everything
Em C G B
Hal fell with the fever
Em C F
And mother I did what I could

We buried him by the river
[Chorus]
