Intro (still haven’t figured it out completely
Variations on C/G D7/F# few times
[C/G] [D7/F#] [C/G]

[C/G]I was b[D7/F#]orn in the Summer of[D7/F#] Sam –[C/G]
[C/G]Smaller and soon[D7/F#]er than planned –
[C/G]In the [D7/F#]spitting image of a [D7/F#]man[C/G]
[C/G]Raised by wolves[D7/F#] on the fat of the land.
[C/G]Clear o[D7/F#]f romance, beauty, a[D7/F#]nd damned[C/G]
[C/G]Tomorrow will co[D7/F#]me if she can.

[C/G]Just wa[D7/F#]nt a woman who can w[D7/F#]alk on a wire[C/G]
[C/G]With a trembling[D7/F#] glass in her hand.

[D7/F#]Over the hilltops [C/G]the fire engine rolls,
[D7/F#]Down the valley dee[C/G]per still it goes;[D7/F#]

[C/G]Got my [D7/F#]weapons out, I’m lay[D7/F#]ing low[C/G]
[C/G]On this end of t[D7/F#]he telescope.

[C/G]Alone, [D7/F#]you ramble the whole[D7/F#] of the world[C/G]
[C/G]Through black-wa[D7/F#]ter jungles for bliss.
[C/G]It’s fe[D7/F#]ast or famine, you e[D7/F#]at what you ki[C/G]ll
[C/G]There’s no need [D7/F#]to bring God into this.
[C/G]My hear[D7/F#]t is heavy and press[D7/F#]ed to the bone[C/G],
[C/G]Some people too [D7/F#]heavy to hold.
[C/G]Salutat[D7/F#]ions, take me as I a[D7/F#]m –[C/G]
[C/G]You can have me,[D7/F#] or leave me alone.
[D7/F#]Sun-kissed lemons i[C/G]n the graveyard below
[D7/F#]Here in death you s[C/G]ee new adventures gro[D7/F#]w.
[C/G]I see y[D7/F#]ou at last but mostl[D7/F#]y ghost,[C/G]
[C/G]On this end of t[D7/F#]he telescope.

solo

C/G with embellishments (D7/F#) G

bridge

This will not be easy
[Am/F#]Word’s out the doctor is not coming in
Em G (embellishments)
This genie is too angry to go back
D7/F# (without seventh)
Into the bottle again.

then another solo which I don’t have the talents to tab

[C/G]Closer [D7/F#]than ever, and cover[D7/F#]ed in birds[C/G]
[C/G]A bone-colored m[D7/F#]oon fills the west.
[C/G]Now, th[D7/F#]roats will be slashe[D7/F#]d, and flags w[C/G]ill unfurl
[C/G]As time will div[D7/F#]ide us in gangs.
[C/G]Now, ye[D7/F#]ars of progress digg[D7/F#]ing the sand[C/G]
[C/G]Companions we ma[D7/F#]de didn’t last.
[C/G]Now, lo[D7/F#]usy lovers do well w[D7/F#]ith their hand[C/G]s
[C/G]But I’ll reach y[D7/F#]ou like nobody can.
[D7/F#]Now, slow and easy,[C/G] you let your paddle go
[D7/F#]Down a the bottom t[C/G]here is more hell to [D7/F#]row.
[C/G]I see c[D7/F#]lear at last: I love[D7/F#], I loathe,[C/G]
[C/G]On this end of t[D7/F#]he telescope.

2nd verse
My forefathers they worked this land
And I was schooled in the tyranny of natures plans
Dressed in thunder a cloud came round
In the shape of a lion a hand came down

Chorus-
Damn this valley
Damn this cold
Take so [C/G]long to let me know
Its plant and reap and plow and sow
C Am7 or B7
But tell me will it grow

(intro riff x2)
(mini solo)

3rd verse
Dig my ditches in the golden sun
Id be robbing these trains if I could catch me one
Sunday Monday now Tuesdays gone
Got me stone cold sober in a drought so long
Boarded mansions and ghost filled yards
Theres a boy in a water tower counting cars
Steel traps open and empty stalls
Theres a well worn saddle but the horse is gone

Chorus
(intro riff x2)
(Solo 2)
4th verse
Jet black starlit midnight rolls
I am down in the garden where I let go
Here on the surface the earth looks round
But its a godless city of cold flat ground

Chorus
(End the song on the intro riff)

Got my window open wide
Got my window open wide
Got a good woman by my side
Got a good woman by my side

Now this kind of day has no night
Yeah, this kind of day has no night
Aint got much on my mind
Aint got much on my mind

Cause I know something good this way comes

Now watching the streets filling up
Watching the streets filling up
In the shade of the summer sun
In the shade of the summer sun

Got sweet apple pie on the stove
Got sweet apple pie on the stove
The birds theyre all flyin low
The birds theyre all flyin low

Cause they know something good this way comes
Cause they know something good this way comes

The trouble, doll, is not moving mountains, but
Digging the ground that youre on
If its true that good fortune gives no chase
We got just what it takes

Collar up on my coat
Collar up on my coat
Trucks are pullin in for the show
Trucks are pullin in for the show

Grasshopper jump in the road
Grasshopper jump in the road
Kids theyre all running home
The kids theyre all running home

Cause they know something good this way comes
Yeah, something good this way comes

The trouble, doll, is not moving mountains, but
Digging the ground that youre on
If its true that good fortune gives no chase
We got just what it takes

Got my window open wide
Got my window open wide
Got a good woman by my side
Got a good woman by my side

Cause I know something good this way comes
Yeah, something good this way comes
Yeah, something good this way comes
Mmmm mmm mmmm.

Ain’t going nowhere now
Let this bottle make its rounds
And let this liquor settle down
We ain’t going nowhere now

CHORUS
Darker than ever in the mine
Shine a light, shine a light
Holler back now, make some noise
I do believe they’ve trapped us boys

Fill the dirt back on the grave
Ain’t nothing good here being raised
Look at the filthy mess we’ve made
Fill the dirt back on the grave

We cut the fruit, we took the tree
We chiseled all the branches free
We took more than we’d ever need
We cut the fruit, we took the tree

CHORUS
Darker than ever in the mine
Shine a light, shine a light
Holler back now, make some noise
I do believe they’ve trapped us boys

Can’t have no one not toe the line
‘Round here, it’s always ‘round midnight
Can’t have no brothers left behind
Can’t have no one not toe the line

That ain’t the cavalry we heard
It’s the rain that’s crashing on the earth
Tell our women and our children we ain’t hurt
And, no, that ain’t the cavalry we heard

CHORUS
Darker than ever in the mine
Shine a light, shine a light
Holler back now, make some noise
I do believe they’ve trapped us boys

(Lots more G)
