[Ebm] [Bb] [Ebm]
I've seen the arrow [Bb] [Ebm] on the dark bone
Saying this [Bb] land is [Ebm] condemned
All [Bb] the way [Db] from [Ab] New [B] Orleans to [Db] [Ebm] Jerusalem
But I've traveled [Bb] to [Ebm] East Texas
Where [Bb] many [Ebm] martyrs fell
And I know no [Bb] one [Db] can [Ab] sing the blues
[B] Like [Db] mine will ever [Ebm] can
[Bb] [Ebm]
[Db] [Ebm] I've heard that whole house singing
[Ab] As [Ebm] they were [Bb] taking down the [Ebm] tents
The [Bb] stars [Db] above the [Ab] barren trees
[Bbm] Was his only [Ebm]
audience
And charcoal gypsy maidens
Construct their [Eb] feathers [Ebm] well
But [Bb] nobody can [Ab] sing the blues
Like [B] mine will [Db] ever [Ebm] can
[Bb] [Db] [Ab] [B]
[Db] [Ebm]
See that big [Bb] [Ebm] plantation's burning
Hear [Bb] the cracking of [Ebm] the wind
Smell that sweet [Bb] magnolia [Db] bloom
And see the [Ab] ghost of [B] slavery's [Db] ship
[Ebm] I can [Bb] hear them [Ebm] tribes a moaning
Hear that [Bb] [Ebm] undertaker's bell
And I know [Bb] no one [Db] can sing [Ab] like [B] mine will [Db] ever can
[Ebm]
There's [Bb] [Db] [Ab]
[B] [Db] [Ebm]
a woman [Bb] by the [Ebm] river
With some fine young [Bb] handsome [Ebm] man
He's dressed [Bb] up like a [Db] spider
Put [Ab] a leg of [Abm] whisker in his [Db] [Ebm] hand
There's a chain gang on the highway
I can hear them rebels yell
And I know [Bb] no one can [Db] sing the blues
[Ab]
Like [B] mine will [Db] ever can
[Ebm]
[Bb] [Ebm]
[Bb] [Db] [Ab] God
[B] [Db] [Ebm]
[Bb] is in his [Ebm] heaven
And we [Bb] all want [Ebm] for tears
But power [Bb] and greed and [Db] corruptible [Ab] seed
[B] Seems to be [Db] all that there [Ebm] is
I'm gazing out the window
Of that old St.
[Db] James' [Ebm] hotel
And I know no [Bb] one [Db] can sing the [Ab] blues
Like [B] mine [Db] will ever [Ebm] can
Like mine will [Bb] [Db] ever can
