[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
Looked like a hundred Emguns held onD me
Hunkered by the sAmhed of Detroit GenCeral & ComEmpany
Calling, boy coDme out, we have you jaCiled
Beside the buck-shot doEmor, I stood stDill
Wondering how the hAmell the bastards foCund me in those Emhills
And clinging to a leDtter that I wish I'd maCiled
[Chorus]
Go rest eEmasy, MadelDine
I'm brinDmging down the baAmnk across this floCoded county lEmine
And when I get hDome, we'll have a grand old tCime
But don't you shed no teEmars or be surprDised
If you get the wAmord that yGour wildC man has up and dEmied
Just set me up a stDone on that high hilClside
[Interlude]
[Verse 2]
Now in the pouring sEmnow, sad, but swiDft
I headed down the hiAmghway
Hoping that the burCden of my blues would Emlift
And praying that the whDiskey would keep me bCrave
Oh, but I got cEmaught in the coDld
Looking like a hAmobo without nGo mCercy from the Emroad
And feeling like a deDad man without a grCave
[Chorus]
Go rest eEmasy, MaDdeline
I'm brinDmging down the bAmank across this flCooded county Emline
And when I get hDome, we'll have a grand old tCime
But don't you shed no tEmears or be surpDrised
If you get the woAmrd that yoGur wildC man has up and dEmied
Just set me up a stDone on that high hilClside
COh my, oh mEmy
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
Bloodied-up and cEmhained, my legs pinned dDown
I woke to find my fAmate in the hands of four mCen gathered 'Emround
And cursing for the Dbag they knew I'd Chid
And the more they stomped and Emmoaned, the more I pDrayed
Feeling every sAmpark flying off of that fCile and their rusted bEmlade
Said, better think it Dthrough, this is your last chance, Ckid
[Chorus]
Go rest eEmasy, MaDdeline
I'm brinDmging down the bAmank across this flCooded county Emline
And when I get hDome, we'll have a grand old tCime
But don't you shed no tEmears or be surpDrised
If you get the woAmrd that yoGur wildC man has up and dEmied
Just set me up a stDone on that high hilClside
