[Intro] Fm A# D# G Cm
FmA thousand miles fromA# Memphis There's a D#crime that left the Gcoroner Cmbreathless FmIt's like the newspapers tellA#in' that it's a matter of Cmtime FmTom takes the turnpike for A#Trenton And the pistol D#shakes in the Gglove Cmcompartment FmHe's got the dirt on his fingers A#and something worse on his D#mind
G#If I wake in the resurrection Stuck here with our thoughts in Trenton D#I, GI'll stand Cmbeside you FKiss the ground like a radical mind 'Til Fmwe're tossed down to the ground
Ghosts of this capital town
A#Yankee streets that can't stand the heat If the Fmheat's not settling D#down
FmI'm gonna write me a A#letter D#To a woman Gin CmMemphis FmI'm gonna give her the A#words I never managed to Cmsay FmSweet Virginia, the A#life that I would give you D#If not Gfor my Cmoffenses FmI never state my A#intentions until the time slips D#away
G#If I wake in the resurrection Stuck here with our thoughts in Trenton D#I, GI'll stand Cmbeside you FKiss the ground like a radical mind 'Til Fmwe're tossed down to the ground
Ghosts of this capital town
A#Yankee streets that can't stand the heat If the Fmheat's not settling D#down
A#Yankee streets, you suffer like you mean it And Fmanother day is gone and you're D#still barely bleeding A#Yankee streets that can't stand the heat If the Fmheat's not settling D#down A#Yankee streets, you suffer like you need And Fmanother day is gone and you're D#still barely breathing A#Yankee streets that can't stand the heat If the Fmheat's not settling D#down
Down down
A#Yankee streets that can't stand the heat If the Fmheat's not settling D#down
A#Yankee streets that can't stand the heat If the Fmheat's not settling D#down
(You said you loved me but you left.)
A#Yankee streets that can't stand the heat If the Fmheat's not settling D#down A#Yankee streets that can't stand the heat If the Fmheat's not settling D#down
