Down At Your Grave chords by Angry Johnny And The Killbillies

Chords with lyrics

Capo 3.


Verse 1:

A minorAm
I have worn a path from the liquor store
G+G                 A minorAm
through the woods and down to your grave

Nobody but me goes down there no more
      G+G               A minorAm
They never loved you like I loved you anyway
 G+G                  A minorAm
I keep the weeds from growing on your stone
     FF                 E MajorE
while you lie there in the cold and keep me company
 A minorAm                FF
I don't have much to do, since the day they buried you
   G+G                 A minorAm
spend all my night just drinking at your grave

Verse 2:

A minorAm
They never found your killer and they never will
  G+G                   A minorAm
no stone to mark the grave where he does lay

No epitaph for him to be remembered by
  G+G               A minorAm
now no one but the Devil knows his name
 G+G                  A minorAm
I come here in the nighttime and I'll sing to you
   FF                E MajorE
I'll promise that my love shall never die
  A minorAm                  FF
Sometimes I pass out drunk and sleep here next to you
 G+G                  A minorAm
I spend my nighttimes mourning at your grave


Verse 3:

A minorAm
Now people think I'm crazy and perhaps I am
   G+G                  A minorAm
When I walk through the town, they look away

Some of them still think I am a guilty man
     G+G                  A minorAm
I was the last one that was seen with you that day
  G+G                 A minorAm
But I was passed out on the couch from drinkin'
  FF               E MajorE
The note said you were going for a drive
 A minorAm               FF
Inside my head I hear that gospel ringin'
  G+G                 A minorAm
At nights when I'm alone here by your grave


Verse 4:

  A minorAm
So damn them all to hell, I do not need them
  G+G              A minorAm
The only thing I need has gone away

They look at my face and see a demon
 G+G                 A minorAm
I look into their eyes and they're afraid
   G+G                  A minorAm
They whisper and they point with waggin' fingers
  FF                  E MajorE
but I could care less what they think of me
  A minorAm              FF
The only thing I care of is what lingers
  G+G                A minorAm
