[D MajorD] Drifting in turn
[A augmentedA] A augmentedA double-edged dance
Hearts [E minorEm] burn with the wind to find [G+G] their way
[D MajorD] Words that connect but never [E minorEm] gain enough traction
Dust [G+G] forever blown [A augmentedA] astray
And there was [B minorBm] never any [E minorEm] doubt
Plans to [B minorBm] make [A augmentedA] and carry [G+G] out
Time keeps slipping [E minorEm] through
Angel [D MajorD] of the blues
[D MajorD] Medicine and blood
All these [A augmentedA] strands that collide
[E minorEm] Poured out lessons [G+G] of youth
[D MajorD] A augmentedA ghost to believe in
Bolts and [E minorEm] bone to survive
The [G+G] outbound tells the burden of [A augmentedA] truth
And there was [B minorBm] never any [E minorEm] doubt
Plans to [B minorBm] make [A augmentedA] and carry [G+G] out
Time keeps slipping [E minorEm] through
Angel [D MajorD] of the blues [B minorBm] [E minorEm]
[B minorBm] [A augmentedA] [E minorEm]
[G+G] [B minorBm] [E minorEm]
[D MajorD]
[D MajorD] Mississippi River
Magnetic [A augmentedA] engines roar
Sad [E minorEm] songs keep the devil [G+G] away
Chances [D MajorD] are it's a given
That it was [E minorEm] time all along
The [G+G] miles keep knocking on [A augmentedA] the door
And there was [B minorBm] never any [E minorEm] doubt
Plans to [B minorBm] make [A augmentedA] and carry [G+G] out
Time keeps slipping [E minorEm] through
Angel [D MajorD] of the blues [B minorBm] [E minorEm]
[B minorBm] [A augmentedA] [E minorEm]
[G+G] [B minorBm] [E minorEm]
[D MajorD]
