[Bm] Don't [F#m] go into [Bm] that bar [F#] [Bm] I am, don't go into that bar I am
[F#] [Bm]
I saw the fading [F#m] sky at [Bm] midnight A pink [F#] blue moon, [Bm] three gold rings
I called a champion to the window I boarded [F#] up below [Bm] the trees
[Em] That's when I heard my name in a scream Coming from the woods out there
[E] [Bm] I let my soul off of the chain Locked my soul real good with a chain
[F#m] Don't go into that bar I am, don't go into that bar [D]
I am
[F#m] [Bm]
Everything you produce is worse [F#m] than the time before
[F#] Because it's how a potato and a cup of wine [D] Fermented [F#m] in the muddy [Bm] rain of course
[Em] A drunken whale, a broken plane Blue to the [Em] birdless trees
Oh [Bm] you're a load alright, you're a load
[B]
Don't go into that [D]
[A] bar [F#m] I [Bm] am, don't go into that bar I am
[F#m] [Bm]
Owl bat's tree is scratching up the sky My pony claw like fingers
A rusty black rake, digging up the turnips Of a [D] muddy cold red sky
[Em] And two talents, coiled and [G] grabbing [B] Stranger [C] happening by
[Bm] And the day was over laying the sun sun down [B] Into the bunk of [F#] a dark [D] dead sky
Don't go into that bar
[C#]
I [Bm] said don't go into that bar [D]
I am
[F#] [Bm]
Back since Saginaw, Colibri was born It's the [F#] apple and the soy [Bm] based tobacco [F#] corn
Down the portico, the house of a long dead farm They found the fallen down chippers of a spooky old barn
[Em] I feel like a sleep shiver upside down Right beneath the waves of grain
[F#m] When the river is low they find old bones When the potholes dig up chains
Don't go into that bar I [E] [C#] [F#m]
said don't go into that bar I am
Did you bury [Bm] your fire?
Yes sir!
Did you cover your tracks?
Yes sir!
[F#] [Bm] Did you bring your knife?
Yes sir!
Did they see your face?
[C#] No sir!
[Em] Did the moon see you?
No sir!
[E] Did the gold cars spill?
Yes sir!
Did [Bm] you face your rake?
Yes sir!
Did you stay downwind?
[D] Yes sir!
Did you hide your gun?
[F#m] Yes sir!
Did you smuggle your rum?
[F#m] Yes sir!
I said how do I know?
How do I know?
How do I know?
[G] [F#]

said don't go into that bar I [F#m] [Bm]

don't go into that bar I am
[F#m] [D]
[F#m] I [Bm] said don't go into [Bm] that bar I [F#] [B] am
[F#] [Bm] No shirt, no coat, took me on a flat boat.
Over [F#m] down to [D] Covington, Covington to [Bm] Louisville.
Louisville to Henderson, Henderson to Smith.
[B] This is [F#] Fandom [D] Memphis, Memphis [B] down to East.
It's Fandom Natchez, going down to [Em] Natchez.
Took me on a flat boat, over [C#m] down to [Bm] Covington, Covington to Louisville.
Louisville to Henderson, Henderson to Smith.
This is Fandom Memphis.
