Gary Allan – Nickajack Cave (Guitar)

E
Little white pills and whiskey 

E
Honky tonks and smoke

E
One night stands with his country band 

          E
Had him strung out on the ropes

          A
Well he cried out to Jesus 

         A                                E
He said Jesus I think I'm too lost to save

      D              A               E
He already had one foot inside his grave 

        D               A                   E
As he stepped into the mouth of Nickajack Cave 

E
Everything was darkness

E
Wasn't no light at all

          E
Just the cold dank air and the pitch black dirt

         E
And he spiders on the walls

         A
Well he laid down beneath a ledge

     A                                      E
And curled up there to meet his judgement day

      D              A                E
The shivering came upon him wave by wave

               D                   A                  E
Well he could feel the breath of death in Nickajack Cave

      A
Then high above him shone a light

A
  He never would forget

        D
Then he heard a voice say Johnny Cash

          D
I ain't thru with you yet

                 E
Get up I ain't thru with you yet

E
I ain't thru with you yet Johnny Cash, get up

          E
Then he crawled out from beneath that ledge

E
  And felt a gentle breeze

E
Tears and dirt smeared on his face

     E
As peaceful as could be

          A
Well he knelt down upon the ground

A                                      E
Raised his eyes up to the light and prayed

         D                 A                  E
He said Lord I'll be your servant from this day

                 D                 A                 E
That's how he became the Man In Black in Nickajack Cave

                 D                 A                 E
That's how he became the Man In Black in Nickajack Cave

E
  Get up Johnny Cash I ain't thru with you yet 

E
Get up
