Capo 3
G Am
I met a sister in the dead of night
C
A gin-soaked smile, worn just right
D G
Her eyes half-blazed with the color of the rising sun
Am
"Please help keep my baby fed"
C
A parade of silence filled my head
D G
I walked on past, my conscience keeps me on the run--
D C G
Well my eyes have seen the coming of this feeling
Am C
Where's your pity now? You've lost the strength somehow
D C G
When you've swallowed so much shit your head is reeling
Am
and you don't feel a thing no more
C
Immune to all life has in store
Am G ACDG
Are there Sundays now?
G Am
I met a brother on the picket line
C
Blistered hands a lot like mine
D G
Leathered skin worn in by the lessons of age
Am
I'll fight the man to my dying day
C
Scabs walk in and take my pay
D G
I pray this story even makes it to the second page--
Chorus
D Em
Like an angel fell by sin,
C
once you're gone it's so damn hard
G D
to get back up again
Em
and I've seen my feelings whirl away
C G D C
Don't look now, you're headed for a drop that falls like rain
GADG
Am
I met a woman with a frozen smile
C
took her hand and walked a while
D G
Swore out loud the woman was the world to me
Am
A year or two went through the door
C
I couldn't feel her anymore
D G
I knew deep down tomorrow was the place to be--
Chorus
