[Verse]
[tab]                          G
I'm still the man that I was

               C                   G
Just a little more grey, a little more stay

          Em   D           C
A little less sting in my buzz

                 G
Still chasing a song

           C
Between a verse and a bridge

        G              Em        D        C
I know life is just a chorus we sing along

         Em                C                       G
And sometimes I think I'm knocking on the door of Heaven

         Em                  C          G
And sometimes I feel like a highway to Hell

         Em              G         D               C
And the circle spins unbroken, and we all run wide open

                                D
'Til we run right back into ourselves

         G           Em             C             G
Take me down to the water, dunk my head into the river

 G          G/B   Em        D        C
Raise your hands, all hail rock 'n' roll

           G    D/F#     Em    D
Change my life, wash me clean with

     C          D      G
The truth of a guitar picker

         G        D/F#        Em     D      Cmaj7
For the songs he sings, I'll gladly give my soul

       G
Evangeline

      C
On a Banjolin

       G
Light bleeding in

             Em           D      C
Through the stained glass of my heart

              G
The song she hums

      C
Stuck in my head

       G
Could raise the dead

         Em        D          C
Bring a blind man out of the dark

           Em                  C                G
Yeah, sometimes I feel like a candle in the wind

         Em                 C                       G
And sometimes I'm just the dust that that wind blows

         Em              G             Em      D        C
And the circle spins unbroken 'til my staying must be going

                                            D
And it goes back to when she was still mine to hold

         G           Em             C             G
Take me down to the water, dunk my head into the river

 G          D     Em        D        C
Raise your hands, all hail rock 'n' roll

               G             C
And change my life, wash me clean with

     C          D
The faith of an amen whisper

         G        D/F#         Em     D       C    Em   C   Em   C  D
For the songs she sings, I'll gladly give my soooooooul

                Em
Yeah, where the angels sing

           C
Where the lost get found

           Em
Where the dirt gets clean

          C
With the sound

          D
With the sound going down

         G           Em             C     D       G
Take me down to the water, dunk my head into the river

 G  G/B      Em   D        C
        All hail rock 'n' roll

             G         D/F#  Em
I change my life, wash everything

        D        C          D    G
When I sing the hymns of a neon drifter

         G     D/F#      Em           D          C     C
Wash the blood from the wood of this six-string soul

 G    C
Yeah

       G        C   G
Evangeline yeah
