Southwood Plantation Road - tabbed by Pete [Intro]
A    G  D   A
(listen to the song to get the rhythm down)

A        G
I've got you

        D                              A
You've got whatever's left of me to get

A                             G
Our conversations are like minefields

D                                     A
No one's found a safe way through one yet

A                     G
I spend a lot of money

D                 A
I buy you white gold

A                       G
We raise up a little roof

D             E
Against the cold

                      A         E D
On Southwood Plantation Road

           A              E       D
Where at night the stars blow like milk across the sky

A                       E
Where the high wires drop

A                     D Dm
Where the fat crows fly
A G D A
A           G   D               A
All night long you giggle and scream

A          G    D              A
Your brown eyes deeper than a dream

A               G
I am not gonna lose you

D                 A
We are gonna stay married

          A                    G
In this house like a Louisiana graveyard

D                    E
Where nothing stays buried

               A           E D
On Southwood Plantation Road

A                     E   D
Where the dead will walk again

A                    E
Put on their Sunday best

A                            D
And mingle with unsuspecting Christian men

Dm
La la la la la
A G D A
