Chords for Lonesome River Band "Perfume,Powder,& Lead"@ The Heartwood Center 7/16/11

[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ This is a tune a buddy of mine in Patrick County, Virginia wrote. _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] It talks about killing people. _
_ [G] And I asked him what his inspiration for this song was and he said it was his ex-wife.
_ _ _ _ But she's still alive and not in jail.
And we've got a good song.
I don't think there's something like it.
We were married in the spring.
She didn't want for anything.
But love and pleasure, [D] little cabin, [G] close to town.
[B] _ [G] _ _ _ Working hard out on the farm.
Counting empty vodka.
Till one day, [D] when spring came [G] _ _ around.
_ Rock, ready, can't wait no more.
Right through the park, out in the door.
This time, [D] I'll be in that [G] game.
_ _ _ What was I supposed to do?
Well, I could tell he'd been confused.
He played me mad and [D] I just couldn't [G] stand the pain. _
_ I can't [C] believe what I have done.
I [G] killed him off with daddy's gun.
Last body [D] lays entangled in [G] our bed.
_ He was [C] a sheriff's only son.
[G] To me, she was the only one.
I smelled perfume, [D] the powder, [G] and the lead.
_ [D] _ _ _
[C] _ _ [Bb] _ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ _

[D] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _

[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ [G] I thought he'd start [Dm] to [G] shake.
Begin to think about my pain.
As I turned, I started [D] to stagger. _
[G] Doors were closed.
_ _ I heard her take her final breath.
I knew my center house would be dead.
So I threw that [D] smoking gun [G] on the _ floor. _
[A] _ [G] That vice, he'd reached it.
Half the night's hung in the air.
Since that awful _ [D] dreadful crime [G] that I had to bear.
_ _ _ All the love she's lost to me.
Another man, they'll never be.
In the end, I'll [D] have to die [G] for loving _ you.
I [C] can't believe what I have done.
I [G] killed him off with daddy's gun.
_ Last body [D] lays entangled in [G] our bed. _
_ _ He was a [C] sheriff's only [G] son.
To me, she was the only one.
I smelled perfume, _ [D] the powder, _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ [G] and the lead.
