Chords with lyrics
Flushed from the Bathroom of Your Heart — Johnny Cash
from "Johhny Cash at Folsom Prison and San Quentin"
CAPO 2 (or play G+G C majorC D MajorD G..., but that's not the way it was played)
FF Bb majorBb
From the backdoor of your life you swept me out, dear.
C majorC FF
In the breadline of your dreams I lost my place.
FF Bb majorBb
At the table of your love I got the brush off.
C majorC FF
At the Indianapolis of your heart I lost the race.
Chorus:
Bb majorBb FF
I've been washed down the sink of you conscience.
C majorC
In the theater of your love I lost my part.
FF Bb majorBb
And now you say you've got me out of your conscience.
C majorC FF
I've been flushed from the bathroom of your heart.
FF Bb majorBb
In the garbage disposal of your dreams I've been ground up dear.
C majorC FF
On the river of your plans I'm up the creek.
FF Bb majorBb
Up the elevator of your future I've been shafted,
C majorC FF
On you calendar of events I'm last week.
Repeat Chorus
(tabbed by Arthur Marks)
