E                    A                   E    B              E
Old Tom Nelson had a son, lord a special one, lord a special one
E                    A                   E    B              E
Nelson found him in his shed, with rags around his head,
E                    A                   E    B              E
Nelson wrapped him in his shirt, and took him to the church
E                    A                   E    B              E
the preacher saw the babys face, strange and twisted shape

A                        E                                        B
He said, throw it in the river, that thing has nothing to do with god

E                    A                   E    B              E
nelson rejected the preachers words, and payed an awful price
E                    A                   E    B              E
next day everybody knew, told me what to do
E                    A                   E    B              E
one night his house went up in flames, they wanted him in chains

A                        E                                        B
we must burn it in the fire, that thing has nothing to do with god

E                    A                   E    B              E
nelson managed to get away, through the frosted clay
E                    A                   E    B              E
nelson took the baby to, a lady that he knew
E                    A                   E    B              E
the whole town searched for them in month, with torches ropes and guns

A                        E                                        B
soon they'll be swinging from the branches, swinging like ragdolls in the wind

E                    A                   E    B              E
they could never leave the place, they could never leave a trace
E                    A                   E    B              E
one day early in the morn', the baby child was gone
E                    A                   E    B              E
nelson went down to the lake, with a hammer as a weight
E                    A                   E    B              E
he had water up to his nose, when he saw a rowing boat
E                    A                   E    B              E
god came gliding through the fog, with the baby in his hug

A                        E                                        B
god said, I got room for you here. He climbed up and soon they were gone

E                    A                   E    B              E
they were never found again, never found again, never found agaaaain!
