Ragged Town [Verse 1]
D                                            F7
My brother please don’t see these aims as my goal

Bm                      A      G                        Fm
Have felt your suffered touch, know what it means to be cold

D                A    A7   D
In that ragged town hell knows
[Verse 2]
D                                                F7
My brother please don’t try to take from me this rage

Bm           A      G            Fm
Not about to argue, got no other place

D                A    A7   D
In that ragged town hell knows
[Chorus 1]
     Bm         Fm
When all’s been bled and done,

Bm         Fm
Binds eyes cold

         Bm                        Fm
For that darkness that you give so free,

      G             A
Is an evil one must scold
[Verse 3]
D                                         Fm
My brother, believe in the words that you choose

Bm                     A       G             Fm
Head’s thoughts may be tricky, so just don’t abuse

D                A    A7   D
When that ragged town bell blows
[Bridge]
Bm              D
Women make your goodbyes

             G7                   E7
Cause you’ll never never never no see these eyes

         Bm                      D
And folks to the place of the fun loving club

        G7                     E7
Or drink fine wine at the bachelors pub

    Bm                                D
And when old and when cold

         G7           E7
And need somewhere to go

        Bm                   D
They’ll go to the place they used to know

         G7                            E7
But it’s changed and there’s no one to show

        Bm                      D
So they go to the shores of the ferry line,

G7                    E7
Thinking how they can pass the time

     Bm  D G7 E7
From here, no more
[Chorus 2]
     Bm         Fm
When all’s been bled and done,

Bm         Fm
Binds eyes cold

         Bm                        Fm
For that darkness that you give so free,

      G             A
Is an evil one must scold

D                A    A7   D
In that ragged town hell knows
