Tom Russell - East Of Woodstock, West Of Viet Nam
CAPO: 4th Fret
[Intro]
C G F C G F C G F
[Verse 1]
C
"I slept through the Nineteen Sixties"
F
I heard Dory Previn say
C
But me, I caught me the great white bird
G
To the shores of Africay
C
Where I lost my adolescent heart
F
To the sound of a talking drum
C G C G F
Yeah, east of Woodstock, west of Vietnam
[Verse 2]
C
And on the roads outside Oshogbo
F
Lord, I fell down on my knees
C
There were female spirits in old mud huts
G
Iron bells ringing up in the trees
C
And an eighty-year-old white priestess
F
She made juju all night long
C G C G F
Yeah, east of Woodstock, west of Vietnam
[Chorus]
F
Raise high the roof beams, carpenter boy
C
Yeah, we’re coming through the rye
In the cinema I saw the man on the moon
G
I laughed so hard I cried
C
It was somewhere in those rainy seasons
F
That I learned to carve my song
C G C G F C G F C G F
Yeah, east of Woodstock, west of Vietnam
[Verse 3]
C
Oh Africa, Mother Africa
F
You lay heavy on my breast
C
You old cradle of civilization
G
Heart of darkness blood and death
C
Though we had to play you, running scared
F
When the crocodile ate the sun
C G C
Yeah, east of Woodstock, west of Vietnam
[Verse 4]
Well, I think it’s going to rain tonight
F
I can smell it coming off the sage
C
As I sit here reading old Graham Greene
G
I taste Africa on every page
C
And then I close my eyes and see those red clay roads
F
It’s sundown, and boys, I’m gone
C G C
Yeah, east of Woodstock, west of Vietnam
[Chorus]
F
Raise high the roof beams, carpenter boy
C
Yeah, we’re coming through the rye
It was a moveable feast of war and memory
G
A dark old lullaby
C
It was the smoke of a thousand camp fires
F
It was the wrong end of a gun
C G C F
Yeah, east of Woodstock, west of Vietnam, yeah
C G C G F C G F C G F C
Yeah, east of Woodstock, west of Vietnam
