Tom: F Gm Black crow laughing on a fenced porch C Far as I can tell Gm There gotta be something behind me C Lord, cause I feel I'm doing well Gm I ain't been staying up late C Making folks wait like I've done before Gm For me to get on track C Make up for what I lack F Bb Gm Black crow, I ain't a joke no more Gm Cold, cold empty home C What's a man to do when he ain't got no dough? Gm And his door's been kicked in C By the damn tax man two days ago Gm Well, he gets a case of the fools Wants to break all the rules C So he pulls out his gun Gm Corner store's a good aim C To make a little change F Bb Gm But it's a shame to blame some innocent one Gm Lord, I can feel them spirits pulling me down F C And a hundred and ten in the pen Gm Is a long time when you did no crime F F C Gm They got the wrong man on that chain F C Gm F C A hundred and ten in the shade (Where I stand) Gm I'm a different man Gm I guess I'll say old crow It is funny how it goes C I do confess Gm What good is freedom outside these walls C If you're living dead Gm I'm gonna pay my dues C Make up no excuse like I did before Gm Make it right with the Lord C I told the sheriff so F Bb C Gm Black crow I ain't a joke no more
