[E] [B]
[E] I hold my hat as the willy will go twirlin' on its [B] way
Shut my eyes to the blinding [A] dust that's leavin' [E] behind today
Turn my gaze to the dusky haze, see [A] where the leaders are
[E] And curse the heat that has almost beat [B] the cow with the [E] baby cow
Old Indigo Jones foretold this drought and I never ever [B] did take heed
So here I am on a dry stop [F#m] loop, travelin' to [E] find a feed
And you could flock or flee all over this land, I'm not [A] tellin' a lie
[E] The trees are chasin' the dogs [B] out here, cause the [E] country's so darn dry
Should ever I find a field of grass where the waters [B] bubble and breathe
I'd give my thanks to the Lord [A] above, down [C#m] on my [E] bended knee
I'd say to Him, Old Indigo Jones, wise [A] old man indeed
He [E] said, the aid is a gun of you, [B] so to your [E] water it'll be
[B] [E] [F#]
[C#] [F#]
The feed is scarce and the water's bad and I haven't got [C#] buckfish chaps
An old man drought he calls the June [B] and I haven't got the will [F#] to dance
Each day I pray to the patron saints, please send us [B] some rain
[F#] Then I swear in my [C#] despair to see no [F#] clouds again
But the devil looks after his own out here, look at that old [C#] black horse
An old man drought he feeds him [B] well, his coat has a [F#] shinin' glow
And this poor old horse that I'm ridin' now is nothin' but a bag [B] of bones
[F#] You wouldn't believe that he threw me twice [C#] the very first [F#] day from home
Should ever I find a field of grass where the [B] waters bubble [C#] and breathe
I'd give my thanks to the Lord [C] above, [B] down on [F#] my bended knee
I'd say to Him, Old Indigo Jones, wise old [B] man indeed
[F#] He said, the aid is a gun of you, so [C#] to your [F#] water it'll be
