E minorEm
Down the drain pipe cross the yard and through the fence
D MajorD E minorEm
I risked a whooping every time I went
C majorC
'Cause white boys weren't allowed
G+G
On the colored side of town
A minorAm
But I was proud to call
BB
That old black man my friend
E minorEm
He had a pillow by the bed he used to pray on
D MajorD E minorEm
And a beat up old guitar he let me play on
C majorC
I knew where my fingers went
G+G
From his greasy fingerprints
A minorAm
Yeah, he was passing on
B7B7
What was handed down to him
Chorus:
C majorC G+G
And it soaked up all the blood and sweat and teardrops
D MajorD E minorEm
And the beers he missed in smokey little bars
C majorC G+G
And sometimes that old man he comes a live in my hands
A minorAm BB
I feel the beating of his sad old broken heart
C majorC D MajorD E minorEm D/ED/E E minorEm
Just like there's a ghost in this gui ta-a-a-a-ar a-ar a-ar
A augmentedA ghost in this
|D MajorD |D MajorD |D MajorD |D MajorD |
gui tar
Verse 2:
E minorEm
Well, the night before he died he made me take it
D MajorD E minorEm
He said, "You play it now, 'cause I gotta go"
C majorC G+G
And I can feel him in my fingers when I play it
A minorAm
'Cause some times I'm in control
BB B/D#B/D#
And some times I just sit back
E minorEm D/ED/E E minorEm
And let him go oh oh
Sit back and let him
