The Sun in the Fall
By Daniel Bailey
Copyright 2019
[Verse 1]
He Gwasn't quite twenty when he Cneeded some money,
And Dwent to go work in the Cdark.
He Gpunched in a nine, decades Cputting in time
For a Emwife and a D7house and a Gheart.
For Gthirty long years he chased Ccash, not career
'Till it fDinally got to his Chead.
He Gpunched out that night with those Cred and white lights
Saying, "Emboy, you should D7really be Gdead."
[Chorus]
His Emhands they were Crough and his Gface it was long,
He was Emcool like the Csun in the Dfall,
He used a Embottle of Cwhiskey to Gput onG/F# his Emface,
And when Casked he said Dnothing at Gall.
[Verse 2]
GIdling felt heavy so he Cbought an old Chevy,
A Dseventy-six Bronco in Cred.
"if I Gcan't do my time with this Cbusted up spine,
Then I'll Embring this girl D7back from the Gdead.
GHe thundered and dinned 'till it Clooked like the twin
Of his Ddaddy's truck back in the Cday,
And the Gdirt on his cheeks was usually Cstreaked
While he Emworked a few D7more months Gaway.
[Chorus]
His Emhands they were Crough and his Gface it was long,
He was Emcool like the Csun in the Dfall,
He used a Embottle of Cwhiskey to Gput onG/F# his Emface,
And when Casked he said Dnothing at Gall.
[Bridge]
He's a Emlong G/F#way aGway from his vision, the Cwork and the prison
Where he Dfelt he belonged.
It's a Emlong G/F#way bGack into health, but he Cflatters himself
That his Dbootstraps are strong.
It's a Emlong G/F#way oGut of the bottle, and it Churts him to know
That he Ddoesn't have long.
[Verse 3]
The sGeason has come for his Cbrood to come home
To fill Dquiet and bellies and Cbeds,
He Gtakes down his glass and he Cpulls off a cap
For the Empain in his D7neck heart and Ghead
He Gpauses mid-sip with the Cdose at his lips
And he Dlooks 'round and feels far Caway.
Some dGay he'll choose different, to Clive for himself,
But it's Emnot gonna D7happen Gtoday.
[Chorus]
His Emhands they were Crough and his Gface it was long,
He was Emcool like the Csun in the Dfall,
He used a Embottle of Cwhiskey to Gput onG/F# his Emface,
And when Casked he said Dnothing at Gall.
