_ _ _ _ [B] John came home from war [F#] this morning, he found his wife, but she wasn't there.
[B] In a cold, cold feeling crept through his [F#] bones, he found a note at [Bm] the bottom of his stairs.
[B] He said, I'm in love with you brother, oh I found a [F#] preacher, I'm in love and I'm [Bm] heading
for the south.
[B] And boy you're fine, but I've changed my [F#] mind, I'm boarding the next train out of town.

_ John flew in through a rage like thunder, he [E] brought his fist down and he cracked [Bm] the floor.
[B] Thought he broke bone away, he screamed and he roared, [F#] he headed right back out the door.
He said, [B] I'm gonna find my brother, god damn this preacher, I'm [F#] gonna put him underneath [Bm] the storm.
[B] Soon the oak trees are so tall, the mountains feel small, [E] they remember the wrath of my [Bm] storm.
_ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ John crashed in with his pistol [E] crying in the morning just before the [F#] dawn.
[B] And he took out a knife and he carved out the [F#] light of a future, and the eyes of the
Lord strung [B] him on high, silhouetted in the sky [F#] like the ravens, they come to the boy
[B] and the lonely man came by, he turned down his eyes, [E] not to gaze upon the brotherhood of John.

And that station platform was empty and quiet as [E] she waited for a man who'd never show.
[B] And the noonday sun was high on her, there was a crack in the ground [F#] as she felt a lump
rise in [Bm] her throat.
[B] John, straight from behind, put a gun on her side and said, baby you, [Bm] I came home.
[B] And it won't take your life, but I wanna [B] look into your eyes when [E] you see I killed the man
that [Bm] you love. _ _ _
