Tom: Ab
[Intro] G
[Primeira Parte]
Em D
Looked like a hundred guns held on me
Am Bm9- C Em
Hunkered by the shed of Detroit General & Company
D C/G
Calling, boy come out, we have you jailed
Em D
Beside the buck-shot door, I stood still
Am Bm9- C Em
Wondering how the hell the bastards found me in those hills
D C/G C9/G C/G
And clinging to a letter that I wish I'd mailed
[Refrão]
Em D
Go rest easy, Madeline
Am Bm9- C Em
I'm bringing down the bank across this flooded county line
D C/G C9/G C/G
And when I get home, we'll have a grand old time
Em D
But don't you shed no tears or be surprised
Am Bm9- C Em
If you get the word that your wild man has up and died
D C/G C9/G C/G
Just set me up a stone on that high hillside
( Em B4 Em A4 D A4 C C )
[Segunda Parte]
Em D
Now in the pouring snow, sad, but swift
Am
I headed down the highway
Bm9- C Em
Hoping that the burden of my blues would lift
D C/G C9/G C/G
And praying that the whiskey would keep me brave
Em D
Oh, but I got caught in the cold
Am Bm9- C Em
Looking like a hobo without no mercy from the road
D C/G C9/G C/G
And feeling like a dead man without a grave
[Refrão]
Em D
Go rest easy, Madeline
Am Bm9- C Em
I'm bringing down the bank across this flooded county line
D C/G C9/G C/G
And when I get home, we'll have a grand old time
Em D
But don't you shed no tears or be surprised
Am Bm9- C Em
If you get the word that your wild man has up and died
D C/G
Just set me up a stone on that high hillside
C Em
Oh my, oh my
( Em B4 Em A4 D A4 Am Am7 Am C C )
( Em B4 Em A4 D A4 C C )
[Terceira Parte]
Em D
Bloodied-up and chained, my legs pinned down
Am Bm9- C Em
I woke to find my fate in the hands of four men gathered 'round
D C/G C9/G C/G
And cursing for the bag they knew I'd hid
Em D
And the more they stomped and moaned, the more I prayed
Am Bm9- C Em
Feeling every spark flying off of that file and their rusted blade
D C/G C9/G C/G
Said, better think it through, this is your last chance, kid
[Refrão]
Em D
Go rest easy, Madeline
Am Bm9- C Em
I'm bringing down the bank across this flooded county line
D C/G C9/G C/G
And when I get home, we'll have a grand old time
Em D
But don't you shed no tears or be surprised
Am Bm9- C Em
If you get the word that your wild man has up and died
D C/G C9/G C/G
Just set me up a stone on that high hillside
( Em B4 Em A4 D A4 Am Am7 Am C C )
( Em B4 Em A4 D A4 C )
