Return Of The Grievous Angel
Lucinda Williams & David Crosby (Gram Parsons Cover)
From the Gram Parsons Tribute Album - "The Return of the Grievous Angel"
It is worth getting!
GWon't you scratch my itch sweetC Annie RGich and welcome me back to town?
Come out on your porch - Cstep into your Gparlor
and I'llA tell you how it all wentD down
GOut with the truckers and the kickers and
the cowboy Cangels and a Ggood saloon in every singleC town
Chorus:
AndC I remember Dsomething you onceG told me
andC I'll be damned if Dit did not comeG true
CTwenty thousand rDoads I went Gdown, Bmdown, Emdown
andC they all lead meD straight back home toG you
'Cause IBm headed west toC grow up with theG country
AEm cross those prairiesD with the waves ofG grain
And IBm saw my devil, and IC saw myD deep blueG sea
And IC thought about a calicoD bonnet from CheCyenne to TDennessGee
GWe flew straight across that riverC bridge last night,
Ghalf past two - The switchman waved his lantern gCoodbye
and Ggood day as we Awent rolling tDhrough
GBillboards and truck stops pass by the GrievousC Angel
And nowG I know just what I Chave toG do
Bridge:
And theBm man on the radio Cwon't leave me aGlone
HeEm wants to take my money for someDthing I've never been
GShown - And IBm saw my devil, and IC saw my Ddeep blue Gsea
And IC thought about a calicoD bonnet from CheCyenne to TDennessGee
GThe news I could bring, I met upC with theG King On his head, an amphetamine crown
He talked about unbucklingC that old BiGble belt
and lighAted out for some desertD town
GOut with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy
Cangels and aG good saloon in everyC town
Chorus:
AndC I remember Dsomething you onceG told me
andC I'll be damned if Dit did not comeG true
CTwenty thousandD roads I wentG down,Bm down,Em down
andC they all lead meD straight back home toG you
CTwenty thousandD roads I went Gdown, doBmwn, doEmwn
andC they all lead meD straight back home toG you
