Capo: 2
Tuning: E A D G B E
Album: Dark & Dirty Mile
Tuning: Standard with Capo 2
Note: You can also play this song in open E.
I have not seen them play this song, so I don't know if it's open E or Capo 2.
Capo 2 is easier to do with the passing tones.
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
No Gman should have to Dlive his life a Gslave
For the Gfew at the Dtop that reap the Ggold
They Cmurder every prophet for as Glong as it's been told
The Genemies of Amboth the pure and Gbrave
Lord, Gsave us before there Dain't much left to Gsave
We Gstopped work and Dheld up in the Gcamps
GUnderneath the DColorado Gstars
The CBaldwin Felts thugs and the GNational Guard
Were Gcalled in to Amput out the Glamp
With the Gblessings of our Ddear old Uncle GSam
[Chorus]
The Cblood sure did Dflow up in GLudlow G/F#
The Emair became Dfull of smoke and Glead
The Cblood sure did Dflow up in GLudlG/F#ow my Emfriends
C D G C ? D
They left a lot of decent people dead
[Verse 2]
The Gholes where a Dfew had tried to Ghide
GSoon enough were Dturned to shallow Ggraves
For at Cleast eleven children that Gno one there could save
The Gdeath special Amtook another Gride
Oh at Gnight I hear their Dlonesome mothers Gcry
[Chorus]
'Cause the Cblood sure did Dflow up in GLudlow G/F#
The Emair became Dfull of smoke and Glead
The Cblood sure did Dflow up in GLudG/F#low my Emfriends
They Cleft a lot of Ddecent people Gdead
[Break]
C ? D ? G ? G/F# - Em ? D ? G
C ? D ? G ? G/F# - Em ? C ? D ? G
[Verse 3]
An GEngineer took Dmercy on our Gsouls
He Gstopped the train right Din the line of Gfire
Gave us Cfolks a chance to Gescape the funeral pyre
The Gstory that I Amtell you must be Gtold
Better Gwake up now Dbefore we're all too Gold
[Chorus]
'Cause the Cblood sure did Dflow up in GLudlow G/F#
The Emair became Dfull of smoke and Glead
The Cblood sure did Dflow up in GLudlG/F#ow my Emfriends
They Cleft a lot of Ddecent people Gdead
Oh the Cblood sure did Dflow up in GLudG/F#low my Emfriends
C D (G)
They left a lot of decent people dead
