By: Drive-By Truckers

Capo 3

Intro: G+G D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9


G+G     D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9
Gran Gran keeps a box of spiders
G+G        D MajorD      Cadd9Cadd9
She says they're on me when I sleep
G+G    D MajorD        Cadd9Cadd9
Waiting in the out-house for me
G+G   D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9
    underneath the seat

G+G D MajorD Cadd9Cadd9

G+G       D MajorD          Cadd9Cadd9
My great-grandmothers bout ninety-seven
G+G        D MajorD        Cadd9Cadd9
and she is sure when she gets to heaven
G+G        D MajorD          Cadd9Cadd9
old St. Peter's gonna throw his arms around her and say
G+G        D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9
"I've waited so long for us to meet"

She put the General in a box
        Cadd9Cadd9               Asus2Asus2
and buried him behind the Stoney Point Church of Christ
         G+G
when I was three

        G+G          D MajorD
(and she says) "When the lord comes to take me
 Cadd9Cadd9          G+G         D MajorD        Cadd9Cadd9
I'll die with a smile on, cause He's taking all my pains and fears."

She said The Generals last words were
   Cadd9Cadd9        Asus2Asus2
"It's hotter than hell in here"

G+G     D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9
Gran Gran keeps a box of spiders
G+G     D MajorD      Cadd9Cadd9
or so she told me as a child
G+G      D MajorD       Cadd9Cadd9
and I would hold it in for hours
G+G   D MajorD      Cadd9Cadd9
    Too mean to die
G+G   D MajorD      Cadd9Cadd9
    Too mean to die,  too mean...
