"Pearls and Swine"
Drunken Prayer
E MajorE BB
Where the sweet magnolia grows there's a river bend I know

Where time ain't nothing to kill

A augmentedA E MajorE
It's a want that never will

When she could not stand the rain.

In a fit of passion, culture clashing
A augmentedA E MajorE
The sunshine turned to rain.
