Biografía:
Proyecto musical liderado por los hermanos Stewart y Garret Mann y que toma su nombre del Statesboro Blues del imprescindible Blind Willie McTell, se presenta como una verdadera revista de la música de raíz americana. De sus páginas surgen todos esos lugares comunes presentes en la mejor tradición musical de la cultura country y por ellas deambulan personajes dignos de cualquier relato de Twain, Faulkner o Steinbeck.

[Intro]
A A D A
[Verse 1]
A
When they lay me in the ground
D A
Don't let the memories bring you down
A
Just raise your head, and raise a round
D A
I'll be in heaven, wearing my crown
A A D A
[D harp]
A
In my heart I've known it all
D A
This rambling poet has flown and crawled
A
But most of all its love I've found
D A
and I'll take it with me wherever I'm bound
E A
I'll take it with me, wearing my crown
[Chorus]
A
When they lay me in the ground
D A
Don't let the memories bring you down
A
Just raise your head and raise a round
D A
I'll be in heaven wearing my crown
A A D A
[D harp]
[Verse 2]
A
There is a ride you'll go along
D A
Don't be afraid, it takes you home
A
Up to a place up in the clouds
D A
Where poets ramble and the lost are found
E A
That's where I'm going wearing my crown
E A
Yea Ill be waiting wearing my crown
[Chorus]
A
When they lay me in the ground
D A
Don't let the memories bring you down
A
Just raise your head and raise a round
D A
I'll be in heaven wearing my crown
E D A
I'll be in heaven wearing my crow----ah-----own
