B C#m B/D# G#m/D#
older brother, restless soul, lie down
Blie for a C#mwhile with your B/D#ear against theG#m earth
and you'll Bhear your sister C#msleep talking
say "B/D#your hair is longC#m but not long enougG#mh to reach
home to Bme
but your G#mbeard
someday might Bbe"
and she'll B/D#wake up in a C#mcold sweat on the Bfloor
next to a fB/D#amily portrait C#mdrawn when you were Bfour
and B/D#beside a jar of C#mtwo cent coins that are Bno good any Bmore
she'll lay it Baside
B/D# B C#m G#m
B C#m B/D# G#m/D#
older father, weary soul, you'll drive
B C#m B/D# G#m/D#
back to the home you made on the mountainside
Bwith that ugly, C#mterrible thing
those B/D#papers for C#mdivorce
and a lonely G#mring
a lonely Bring
sit on your G#mporch
and pluck your Bstrings
Band you'll find somebody you can blame
and you'll follow the creek that runs out into the sea
and you'll find the peace of the Lord.
B C#m B/D# G#m/B
grandfather, weary soul, you'll fly
B C#m B/D# G#m/B
over your life once more before you die
Bsince our grandma C#mpassed away
you've B/D#waited for forC#mever and a G#mday
just to Bdie
and someday G#msoon
you will Bdie
it was the B/D#only C#mwoman you ever Bloved
that got B/D#burnt by the sun too C#moften when she was Byoung
and the B/D#cancer spread and it C#mran into her Bbody and her blood
and there's B/D#nothing you can C#mdo about it Bnow
