Originally performed by Gillian Welch
This was derived from David Bazan's recording on Spring 2013 Tour EP.
In the recording, the guitar is tuned a half a step down.
EmWhen the iceberg Dmhit, oh they must of known
FGod moves on the wateC/Gr, like Casey Jones.
EmSo I walked downtDmown on my telephone
FN'took a lazy tuC/Grn through the red-eyeG zone
EmIt was a five banDmd bill. A two dollar show.
SawF the van out frC/Gont from Idaho
And theEm girl passedDm out in the backseat trash
There wasF no way they'd make eC/Gven a half a tank Gof gas.
EmThey looked sick and stDmoned and strangely dressed
FNo one showedC/G from the local press
EmBut I watched them Dmwalk through the bottom land
FAnd I wished I playedC/G, in a rock and roFll Gband
DmHey,F hey
C/GIt was the 14Gth Dmday of FApCril
EmWell they closed itDm down with the sail in rags
FAnd I swept up the C/Gfags and the local rags
EmThrew the plastic Dmcups in a plastic bag
FAnd the cooks cleaned the kiC/Gtchen with the staggers and thGe jags.
EmRuination dDmay and the sky was red
FI went back to wC/Gork and back to bed
EmAnd the iceberg brDmoke and the Okies fled
FAnd the Great EmancipaC/Gtor took a bullet in the backG oEmf tChe head
