_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ This _ _ _ _ morning I took Eddie to [C] the station, _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ put him [Am] on [C] a train, sent [G] him home.
_ _ _ _ He came out here just looking for [C] some answer.
_ _ _ _ _ [D]
He only found [C] out what he'd [G] always known.
He _ _ _ _ looked for Jesus but he only found [C] the devil. _ _ _ _
[D] But the devil _ [C] is an easy [G] man to find.
_ _ He's _ _ lurking in your finger [C] on that trigger. _ _ _
_ _ [D] He's swimming [A] in [C] that cheap bottle [B] [G] of wine. _ _
_ [C] Good old Shally was the lady of [G] the evening. _ _
_ _ _ [D] And Eddie was [C] drunk like every [G] night before. _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] He told her that tonight he'd [G] come to save [Em] her.

[G] buried her up there in _
[C] Father's field.
