Verse:
5. Jenny came back and the wet road still shining
  In our eyes an angel, clear and coronal, clothed in all that's
    prodigal and strange

6. Jenny came back and I thought that I heard her
  Murmur something 'bout "No men in Virginia" spat on the ground like
    a letter tossed away


Bridge:
7. Jenny and me in my dead truck and turning over
  Just where heaven calls the kingdom of the animals scratching our
    heads where the wolf would go to lay

Final Bridge:
 Em               C
