The Old Plantation
Minus 5
Capo 1
E MajorE
The old plantation has been abandoned
      A augmentedA          E MajorE
The love is gone, yeah, the love is gone
 E MajorE
New hieroglyphics braid the columns
      A augmentedA           E MajorE
Kids on the ?M? train baptize the lawns

E MajorE
Your floating jukebox stuck on "I'll Get You"
    A augmentedA            E MajorE
So lost at sea, yeah, so lost at sea
 E MajorE
You took the rations, you man the spyglass
      A augmentedA         E MajorE
So far from Memphis, rivers from me

  A augmentedA         E MajorE     C# minorC#m  G# minorG#m  F# minorF#m    E MajorE
But did you ever really try to peel away the sky?   Neither did I

E MajorE
The master bedroom, its shutters hanging
      A augmentedA       E MajorE
It's no museum, it's no museum
E MajorE
The fields are barren but for a bonfire
    A augmentedA         E MajorE
A augmentedA pile of empties in the mausoleum

A augmentedA         E MajorE     C# minorC#m  G# minorG#m  F# minorF#m     E MajorE
But did you ever really try to peel away the sky?   Neither did I

E MajorE
God bless the shelter, so bruised and battered
       A augmentedA          E MajorE
God bless the day, God bless the days
 E MajorE
The old plantation is like a sore now
       A augmentedA         E MajorE
A augmentedA home for maggots, but don't turn away

A augmentedA         E MajorE     C# minorC#m  G# minorG#m  F# minorF#m
Don't turn away until you try To peel away the sky (x2)
