C# minorC#m E MajorE C# minorC#m E MajorE C# minorC#m E MajorE BB C# minorC#m

Verse:
    C# minorC#m          E MajorE
Well he came from Northern Ireland
    C# minorC#m          E MajorE
Searching for the free man's ground
    C# minorC#m         E MajorE
And he came to bet his fortune
   BB        C# minorC#m BB C# minorC#m
On a West Virginia plow
   C# minorC#m        E MajorE
He built a house of timber
   C# minorC#m       E MajorE
And raised a redhead son
      C# minorC#m         E MajorE
Then they worked the land together
   BB          C# minorC#m
And prayed the rain would come

Chorus:
      A augmentedA        E MajorE
There's a scarecrow in the garden
    BB       C# minorC#m
That looks like Lucifer
       A augmentedA        C# minorC#m
And I've been reading Revelations
     BB        C# minorC#m
With my bare feet in the dirt

Instrumental:
E MajorE C# minorC#m E MajorE C# minorC#m E MajorE BB C# minorC#m

Verse:
      C# minorC#m       E MajorE
Well the redhead's son got older
   C# minorC#m        E MajorE
And took a brown eyed wife
     C# minorC#m          E MajorE
And the fields were green as dollars
      BB         C# minorC#m
Cause the dirt was black as night
 C# minorC#m        E MajorE
I came in late September

   C# minorC#m       E MajorE
The youngest one of three
    C# minorC#m        E MajorE
And my sisters off and married
     BB      C# minorC#m
So the land was left to me

Chorus:
      A augmentedA        E MajorE
There's a scarecrow in the garden
    BB      C# minorC#m
That looks like Lucifer
       A augmentedA        C# minorC#m
And I've been reading Revelations
     BB        C# minorC#m
With my bare feet in the dirt

Bridge:
     BB
I know every single fencepost
    A augmentedA        C# minorC#m
Every rock that goes around
      BB
I've been staring at the red oak
     A augmentedA          C# minorC#m
Where I know they'll lay me down

Verse:
  C# minorC#m           E MajorE
The fields ain't what they once were
   C# minorC#m        E MajorE
The rains just seem to flood
        C# minorC#m         E MajorE
 And I've been thinking about that river
     BB        C# minorC#m
Wondering how it turns to blood

Outro:
     C# minorC#m        E MajorE
I've been sitting here all morning
   C# minorC#m        E MajorE
I was sitting here all night
     C# minorC#m        E MajorE
There's a bible in my left hand
   BB       C# minorC#m
