[Verse 1]
Em G D Em Crickets are chirping, the water is high Em Am D Em There’s a soft cotton dress on the line hangin’ dry Em G D Em Window wide open, African trees Em Am D Em Bent over backwards from a hurricane breeze D Em Not a word of goodbye, not even a note Em Am She gone with the man D Em In the long black coat
[Verse 2]
Em G D Em Somebody seen him hanging around Em Am D Em At the old dance hall on the outskirts of town Em G D Em He looked into her eyes when she stopped him to ask Em Am D Em If he wanted to dance, he had a face like a mask D Em Somebody said from the Bible he’d quote Em Am There was dust on the man D Em In the long black coat
[Verse 3]
Em G D Em Preacher was a talkin’, there’s a sermon he gave Em Am D Em He said every man’s conscience is vile and depraved Em G D Em You cannot depend on it to be your guide Em Am D Em When it’s you who must keep it satisfied D Em It ain’t easy to swallow, it sticks in the throat Em Am She gave her heart to the man D Em In the long black coat
[Verse 4]
Em G D Em There are no mistakes in life some people say Em Am D Em It is true sometimes you can see it that way D Em But people don't live or die, people just float Em Am She went with the man D Em In the long black coat
[Verse 5]
Em G D Em There’s smoke on the water, it’s been there since June Em Am D Em Tree trunks uprooted, 'neath the high crescent moon Em G D Em Feel the pulse and vibration and the rumbling force Em Am D Em Somebody is out there beating a dead horse D Em She never said nothing, there was nothing she wrote Em Am She gone with the man D Em In the long black coat
