A"Joliet,&Dquot; she says, "is the darCkest part of a man..." It's Gangry and slick Ainto those letters Dwrites through herself each Ctime that she Gthinks of him ATrips her way down Dsouth, into mystery's Cmouth and he Gfollows her there AIt's what she doesn't Dsay that makes you want to Cstay and try to Gcomfort her
Chorus: 1:10- 1:32 D* C* B* I talked to the cousins of people who knew you D* C* B* I asked them the questions they expected to hear, like D* C* B* maybe a killing went down in your town
Amaybe it's the prison or the birth of barbed wire 1:33- 1:44 A D C G
Verse: 1:45- 2:30
A"Joliet,&Dquot; she says, "is the darCkest part of a man..." It's shaped like Gliberty's bell Ait's cracked and common Dlaw, stretched out over it's fClaws just like an Gink-less well AThe hanging judge in Dtown records her comments Cdown she saves the Gcrowd the truth and Adeals with it herDself, fills that hollow Cwell, with nothing Gleft to prove
Chorus: 2:31- 2:53 D* C* B* I talked to the mountains and streams that pushed through there D* C* B* I talked to the trees that had no fruit to bear D* C* B* to the colorless people that sat there beneath her
Acurled up and stared 2:54- 3:17 (SOLO) A D C G A D C G
3:18- 3:51 (SOLO & band) A D C G D C B D C B D C B A Chorus: 3:52- end D* C* B* I talked to the cousins of people who knew you D* C* B* I asked them the questions they expected to hear, like D* C* B* maybe a killing went down in your town
