I could have been a businessman, I was too hard headed, plus I never had the money, [G] plus
I kinda [A] got arrested, [D] but my sweet old folks thought I'd make a pretty decent one of those,
and I still live the kind of life where people [E] judge on [D] your clothes.
_ [G] Now it's forty miles of back [A] road on all [D]-terrain tires, [G] that little blue hymnal [A] sittin' open
[D] all the while, [G] singin' songs to a God [D] I've met but do not know, [Em] makin' wagers on the
critters [A] that we see crossin' the road. _ _
[G] Yeah, the sparrow on the wing taught me [C#m] to find you, [G] and the possum knows his own mind
[A] more than I do, [G] I'm here for all the love that [A] I can stand, _ _ _ [D] take me to Critter Land! _

_ _ _ In [D] the decade of our lovin', we've grown to not so young, I've come to know the seasons
[A] by the lashing of your tongue, [D] but the propane gently sputters, there's spring water in our
tap, oh why can't we feel the peace of this sweet dog upon [E] our _ laps?
[G] Oh the granny witch and [D] herbalist have remedies for us, [G] it's a tincture and a prayer poured
[A] down the holler [D] of our guts, [G] on the homestead and the pine [A] beds we've grown our [D] holy power,
[Em] layin' bare like critters [A] there hour by lovin' hour.
_ _ [G] Yeah the sparrow on the wing taught [C#m] me to sing for you, [G] and the possum keeps your young
[A] closer than I do, [G] I'm here for all the grief that [A] I can stand, _ _ _ [D] take me to Critter Land! _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [A] _
[Bm] Oh I never thought [A] I could love like this, [D] they think [F#m] I'm a queer [Bm] and a communist, [D] but
I'll go along to get [A] along darlin', it [D] feels so right. _ _ _ _
[G] Cause why have a God [A] if no one is [D] saved, I think love [A] is a burden, [Bm] if it [A] ain't brave
[G] I'll live and die forever [A] there, right [D] there in that _ divide. _ _ _
Oh it's hard to say what I have learned from all these hills and hems, but we're dying
and we're singing, I love you and we've sinned, and when marauders come cause the apocalypse
is nigh, I want my rifle on my shoulder, [Em] my lover [A] by my side.
_ [E] I [G] want to be the kind of man [B] that stands his [D] ground and dies, [G] take my fiddle and my good
[A] hat, I'll go out in style, [G] I'll do it all for family, [A] not for glory or a God, [Em] in the
war [G] that's raging [A] between the haves and the have _ -nots. _
[Bm] Oh the sparrow on the wing taught [C#m] me to fight for you, [G] and the possum keeps your teeth [A] sharper
than I do, you [G] can bury me where I make my [A] last _ _ stand, at the [D] battle of Critterlands.
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [D] _
_ [E] _ At the [Bm] battle of Critterlands. _
