G+G
The trickin' leads to my worried mind
               C majorC
My worried mind, it leads to you
        D MajorD      G+G
And thinkin' of you leads to nowhere
            D MajorD   C majorC
But to the Devil in the ocean blue
     D MajorD    G+G
I ask the moon for orchids
           D MajorD    E minorEm      D MajorD    C majorC
She said "How 'bout a drop of blood from a rolling stone?"
          D MajorD          G+G
She never fails to tickle my funny bone

G+G
How do you steal what you really want
               C majorC
When what you really want is free?
        D MajorD      G+G
And how do you deal when you lost at the wheel
         D MajorD     C majorC
Only thinkin' how it 'oughta be?
     D MajorD    G+G
Held my love for ransom
      D MajorD  E minorEm  D MajorD    C majorC
And posted a reward I cannot afford
          D MajorD       G+G
A augmentedA dynamite from the ceiling to the floor


Pre-Chorus:
         C majorC          D MajorD
Yeah from your one-eyed-jacks To your rolled up trips
    G+G           C majorC
I'll be gone when your pocket aces flip
     B/C   D MajorD     C majorC    G+G
And there ain't no river that needs a dam
    E minorEm    D MajorD   C majorC
Just a slow and steady drip

Chorus:
       D/G Em/GEm/G G+G
I'll be your burn card
Em/GEm/G            D/G
Lost in the shuffle at the
Em/GEm/G
Bottom of the deck, yeah
D/G
Tryin' to hide
    Em/GEm/G
But the highway's low
    D/G
And the low way's mine
    Em/GEm/G D/G Em/GEm/G D/G  Em/GEm/G
You can burn     me eternally
D/G           Em/GEm/G
Out to the snow and the wind and the rain
  D/G         Em/GEm/G
And again and again and again and
     D MajorD                 G+G
I'm just leavin' a little worse than when I came

Trouble is as a trouble does

When it's on a troubled mind
    D MajorD    G+G
Reasons come and reasons will go
          D MajorD       C majorC
When the blind are followin' the blind
     D MajorD    G+G
The coffin in that cradle
           D MajorD  E minorEm      D MajorD   C majorC
The daughter and the Holy Ghost in the same room
            D MajorD         G+G
Me, I'm just makin' the dust fly with the broom

Where the aces are low and the blinds are too high
