D
[Verse 1]
Am D I know what it means to get knocked down drunk, Am D I was lying in a bush by the coal, Am where the river runs deep G & the demons don't sleep D & the water's obscured by the smoke. Am D Well I drug myself to the river's edge Am D & I drank like a dog on the sand. Am It burned my tongue, G my whole head gets spun D & I stood on the stone D & I spoke to the wind and the rain.
[Bridge]
Am D
Am D
[Chorus]
Am D Said I know what it means to get left for dead, Am D when the saints rise up at the sound. Am When the spirits don't move in G their chains and the shoes D & the crack of the guns all around. Am D I know how it is to get all dressed up, Am D where nobody would know where to go. Am With a fifth in your vest, G & some pills on your tongue D & a gun looking out across
the Valley of the Shadow below, oh.
[Bridge]

[Verse 2]
Am Well I preached to the bums D and I preached to the birds Am D til the crowd had started to form. Am My disciples that came, G through the wind and the rain D & the rags in their jackets all torn. Am D Well I prophesized of the things to come Am D & I jumped like a bug on a wall, Am til my head it was through G with the river's strange brew D & I sunk to my knees, in the breeze, Am & I started to pray, D I said hey! Am D You know I ain't got a dang thing to say, Am G with a head full of booze and nothing to loose D for a creature was made out of clay, hey!
