[N] [Db]
[Ab] [Eb] [Gb]
[Db] [Ab]
[Eb] [Gb] He's a king, he's a poor [Ab] boy, a coward [Eb] in the swing.
[Gb] He's been standing there so all [Ab] along.
Well, I [Gb] guess he'll keep standing there [Ab] until he can't walk.
[Bbm]
[Gb] And tomorrow's [Db] hurricane [Ab] travel is [Gb]
taking [Db] over.
And [Ab] that is for [Eb] it's told.
[Gb] He found [Db] no trust to call his [Ab] own.
[Gb] With [Db] labor's lost, [Ab] this spirit's lost [Eb] its cause.
[Gb] He [Db] couldn't make [Bbm] it all [Ab] alone.
[Db] But many [Ab] brave men are rich.
[Eb]
[Db] Back to the [Ab] place where it began.
[Eb] [Db]
And in our time [Ab] since the [Eb]
burning.
When [Db] the devil called the [Ab] slave marshal in the [Bb] sun.
And [Db] the [Ab] nightmare's been waiting at the [Eb] station.
[Db] Gently [Ab] one step, one by [Eb] one.
[Ab]
I [Db] suggest that you [Ab] have it [Eb] [Db]
before [Eb] all these [Bb] things are [Ab]
done.
[Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb]
[Bb] [Eb] A sorry [Db] husband [Ab] is like a [Eb] fill of pain.
When he heard [Db] the news, he [Ab] walked the line.
[Eb]
[Bb] Someone [Eb] once said, why [Ab]
this house should [Eb] not be framed.
[Bb]
Better [Eb] leave him [Bbm] some, [Ab] that's sure enough to [Eb] blame.
[Bb]
[Ab] [Bbm]
[Bb] [Eb]
[Bb]
[Bbm] [Bb]
[Eb]
[Bb]
[Bbm]
[Bb]
[Eb] All your sins, [Gb] [Db] they've [Eb] all been told.
[Bbm] [Eb] Brainy, [Db]
solid [Bb] and his soul.
[Eb]
[Bb]
[Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
[Bb]
[Eb] You [Gb] think you've pulled [Ab] by the power [Eb] of your soul.
[Gb]
Since then [Db] laughter's flown all [Ab] around.
Well [Gb] I guess he'll keep standing there [Ab] until [Eb] he's caught fire.
[Gb] And tomorrow's [Ab] hurricane travel.
But [Db] many brave [Ab] men are [Eb] returning.
[Db] Back to [Ab] the place where it [Eb] began.
[Db] And in our time [Ab] since the burning.
When [Db] the devil called the [Ab] slave marshal in the [Eb] sun.
[Db] And the [Ab] nightmare's been waiting at the station.
[Eb] [Db] Gently one [Ab] step, one by one.
I [Db] suggest that [Ab] you have it before [Db]
[Eb] all these things [Ab] are done.
