Chords with lyrics
Like a Mississippi Windchime in the breeze
A minorAm
Danglin’ down from the sycamore tree.
E MajorE
Like a vessel of wrath shattered on the ground,
A minorAm
Old Judge Lynch dropped the hammer down.
A minorAm
It’s dust to dust, to Angel Lust,
A minorAm
For St. Angeline. And you’re mine.
E MajorE
Two Easters left in my Christmas plow.
A minorAm
I wouldn’t take a dollar for my journey now.
E MajorE
They put the “laughter” in slaughter, the “lie” in believe
A minorAm
‘Cause my carbon footprint sinks six feet deep.
A minorAm
It’s dust to dust, to Angel Lust,
A minorAm
For St. Angeline. And you’re mine.
Piano solo: "no help here yet"
E MajorE
The LORD may condemn me but my baby forgives.
A minorAm
She’ll meet me inside the final tent I pitch.
E MajorE
White water lillies in my funeral spray,
A minorAm
Showered on my baby like a fine bouquet.
A minorAm
It’s dust to dust, to Angel Lust,
A minorAm
For St. Angeline. And you’re mine.
E MajorE
So cast your useless sabres aside.
A minorAm
Make the Devil eat his hat and set your head on fire.
E MajorE
It all shakes out the same way in the end.
A minorAm
The meat slides out in the shape of the can.
A minorAm
It’s dust to dust, to Angel Lust,
A minorAm
For St. Angeline. And you’re mine.
