• Difficulty: Beginner 👶

♫ Verse 1:
Am                                  Am
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
                  Dm
I can't help but wonder
                        Am
What's happening to my companions?
                  Am
Are they lost? Are they found?

Have they counted the cost it'd take to bring down
Dm                                                Am
All the earthly principles they're gonna have to abandon?

♫ Chorus:

               F                      Dm
And there's a slow (slow) slow train comin' (train)

Up 'round the bend (comin')

I had a woman down in Alabama
          Dm                                  Am
She was a back-woods girl, but she sure was realistic

She said, "Boy, without a doubt, have to quit your mess and straighten out
          Dm
You could die down here
                          Am
Be just another accident statistic"

Am
When my baby went to Illinois

With some bad-talkin' boy she could destroy
       Dm                                                     Am
A real suicide case, but there was nothin' I could do to stop it

I don't care about economy, I don't care about astronomy
               Dm                                           Am
But it sure do bother me to see my loved ones turnin' into puppets (oh)

And they bury him with stars
         G                        F

You may be a noisemaker, spiritmaker, heartbreaker, mapmaker
F              C
Leave no stone unturned
           Am
May be an actor in a plot
              C
That might be all that you got
             Dm                   G
Till you're whatever you clearly learned
