VERSE:

There was a black heart beatin` in a cowboy`s chest
D MajorD
When the sun had cooked him through

And the tracks were tears on a cigarette
C majorC G+G D MajorD
When the sky had opened up again
C majorC G+G A augmentedA A augmentedA
Looked like midnight, it was noon.

VERSE:
A augmentedA
There was a black bird sittin` on top of the wire
D MajorD
And the coal made the sky turn gray
C majorC D MajorD
When the saints become the beggars
G+G D MajorD
And they live down among the fray
G+G A augmentedA
And they dream of a golden day.
VERSE:
A augmentedA
There was a man on fire in the back of the church
D MajorD
Who speaks in a sorry tone
C majorC
Not because his lover died

But she left him all alone
G+G A augmentedA A augmentedA
To sing with the holy stones.

VERSE:
C majorC G+G
I been breakin` down these ol` bones
D MajorD A augmentedA
I been waitin` for the fever to break
C majorC G+G
Does your house look like a home
D MajorD A augmentedA
When it`s slidin` on into the lake?
C majorC G+G
And when the darkness falls
D MajorD A augmentedA
Oh, you`ll be ridin` on a southbound train
C majorC G+G
And cut your coal to burn
D MajorD A augmentedA
And fill your heart with flame
CHORUS:
A augmentedA D MajorD
Our true love`ll leave you on your knees in the rain.

Our true love will leave you in the rain.

OUTRO:
A augmentedA
There was a black heart beatin` in a cowboy`s chest
D MajorD
If he even had a heart at all
C majorC D MajorD
His mother died when he was born
C majorC G+G D MajorD
His daddy in a coal mine fall
C majorC G+G A augmentedA
There`s blood on the coal mine wall
