One Man's Shame
William Elliott Whitmore
Originally recorded with banjo, but sounds good on guitar as well. Pretty simple progression,
especially if you go with regular strumming instead of the cool little banjo riff that goes over the Cm.
CmDon't alter my altar, don't desecrate my shrine
My church is the wFater and my home is underneath the shCmady pines
CmDon't underestimate the spine in a poor man's back
when it's against the wGall and his future's blCmack
One man's stFory is another man's shCmame
I ain't bound for glFory, I'm bound for flamCmes
Take to the woods Fboy, and cover up your Cmtracks
Go awFay child, go away chGild and don't look backCm
F G Cm
CmSad is the lullaby from a mother's heart and soul
when she knows her cFhild has strayed from the fCmold
CmThe parish will perish by death's cruel hand
and finish the jGob that fate began Cm
CmAnd all that static in the attic, that's just an old drunk ghost
His chains are rFattlin' but his end is closCme
CmAin't no hell below, ain't no heaven above
I came for the drGinks but I stayed for the lovCme
One man's stFory is another man's shCmame
I ain't bound for glFory, I'm bound for flamCmes
Take to the woods Fboy, and cover up your Cmtracks
Go awFay child, go away chGild and don't look backCm
F G Cm
CmDon't alter my altar, don't desecrate my shrine
My church is the wFater and my home is underneath the shCmady pines
CmDon't underestimate the spine in a poor man's back
when it's against the wGall and his future's blCmack
One man's stFory is another man's shCmame
I ain't bound for glFory, I'm bound for flamCmes
Take to the woods Fboy, and cover up your Cmtracks
Go awFay child, go away chGild and don't look backCm
Take to the woods Fboy, and cover up your Cmtracks
Go awFay child, go away chGild and don't look backCm
Go awFay child, go away chGild and don't look backCm
