G7 G C
[Verse 1]
G C She reads the leaves and she leads the life G D That she learned so well from the old wives Em D C It's so strange to arrange it, you know I D wouldn't change it Em D C But hear me if you're near me, can I just D rearrange it? G7 The watchman covers me
With his remedy
D I can't see and it's hard to feel C G I think his magic might be real
[Musical Interlulde]

[Verse 2]
G G7 C I can't get to you from your garden gate G D You know it's always locked by the magistrate Em D C Now he don't care why you cry, he thinks it's D just a lie Em D C D To get out, I don't doubt that you'd make a try G7 If the good times get you through
I know the dogs won't bother you
D We'll be gone in moonshine time C G I've got a place they'll never find
[Musical Interlude]

[Verse 3]
G C You know I do believe in your hexagram G D But can you tell me how they all knew the plan? Em D C Did you trip or slip on their gifts you know were D just a con? Em D C D You knew it, why d'you do it, I've been hiding in the dawn G7 Now I must be on my way
I guess you really have to stay
Inside the mission walls
D C G Down in Modark, Arkansas
