These chords were figured out by Matt Fleming.
This was orginally posted with no capo. I have been informed that the
Crows play it with a capo on 2 and I found that it makes it a lot easier
to play. I have changed the file to be played with a capo on II.
Note the A chord in the verse. At times, if you sing it by yourself, it
will sound like it should be an Am, but I assure you that it should
definitely be an A. If you play it as Asus2, it might make things easier.
Intro:
Em D Em C
EmStart tearing the Bmold man down
Run Dpast the heather and Adown to the old roadEm
Start turning the Bmgrain into the groundC
Roll a new leaf over Em
In the Bmmiddle of the night there's an Dold man
Treading aAround in the gathered rain Em
Well mister if you want to Bmwalk on waterD
Could you Cdrop a line my Gway
Chorus:

All your life is such a shame
All your love is just a dream

Casting shadows on the winter sky as you stood there counting crows
One for Asorrow Two for joy, Three for G/Bgirls and four for boys
Five for A/C#silver Six for gold and Seven for a G/Dsecret never to be told
There's a bird that nests inside you
Sleeping underneath your skin
When you open up your wings to speak
I wish you'd let me in
All your life is such a shame
All your love is just a dream
Open up your eyes
You can see the flames of your wasted life
You should be ashamed
You don't want to waste your life

EIn the still water she lies down
DShaking in the press of sunlight
AWe rolled into Lexington
EShe shakes off the drop of daylight
EWater beading up her chest
DBleeding down between her knees
ARivers in Kentucky flow
EBetween the bluegrass wavy seas
DBut oh, EMarjorie
DTwists the knife Aonce more inside of Eme
Breathless with anticipation
Baited breathers set their hooks
Tuck their heads beneath the high grass
And lie and wait beside the brooks
For infants pushing slowly through
Frustration leading back along
The alleys of a childhood
Will not release us willingly
But oh, Marjorie
Sticks the knife in while I heard the sea
[solo]
F#m B? [repeat]
Dust me off and shut me down
And dream of where I haven't been
Close the door inside my heart
Stuck in the south Atlantic wind
I have hollow eyes
Haunting only to myself
Even so, I can't stop calling
This great big hollows in my self
I took the train form California
To the far side of the continent
Woke up in Kentucky
Where a wedding was about to end
I looked up at Anna
She turned back to look at me
It's best to kill the ones that matter
Render blind the ones who see
But oh, Marjorie
Takes the blade and walks away from me
Oh, Marjorie
Love like blood is pouring out of me
Oh, Marjorie
My heart won't stop bleeding over me baby
[solo over F#m and B?]
Oh, I can't shut it in
It's got far too many doors to block the wind
Oh, I can't shut it in
It's got far too many doors to block the wind

And in between the moon and you the angels get a better view

of the crumbling difference between wrong and right

I walk in the air between the rain, through myself and back again

These chords were figured out by Matt Fleming.
This was orginally posted with no capo. I have been informed that the
Crows play it with a capo on 2 and I found that it makes it a lot easier
to play. I have changed the file to be played with a capo on II.
Note the A chord in the verse. At times, if you sing it by yourself, it
will sound like it should be an Am, but I assure you that it should
definitely be an A. If you play it as Asus2, it might make things easier.
Intro:
Em D Em C
Em Bm
Start tearing the old man down
D A Em
Run past the heather and down to the old road
Bm C
Start turning the grain into the ground
Em
Roll a new leaf over
Bm D
In the middle of the night there's an old man
A Em
Treading around in the gathered rain
Bm D
Well mister if you want to walk on water
C G
Could you drop a line my way
Chorus:
D Em
Omaha
C
Somewhere in middle America
G D C
Get right to the heart of matters
G D
It's the heart that matters more
Em A C
I think you'd better turn your ticket in

All your love is just a dream
Open up your eyes
You can see the flames of your wasted life
You should be ashamed
You don't want to waste your life

In the still water she lies down

Shaking in the press of sunlight

We rolled into Lexington

Water beading up her chest

Bleeding down between her knees

Between the bluegrass wavy seas

But oh, Marjorie

Twists the knife once more inside of me
Breathless with anticipation
Baited breathers set their hooks
Tuck their heads beneath the high grass
And lie and wait beside the brooks
For infants pushing slowly through
Frustration leading back along
The alleys of a childhood
Will not release us willingly
But oh, Marjorie

Dust me off and shut me down
And dream of where I haven't been
Close the door inside my heart
Stuck in the south Atlantic wind
I have hollow eyes
Haunting only to myself
Even so, I can't stop calling
This great big hollows in my self
I took the train form California
To the far side of the continent
Woke up in Kentucky
Where a wedding was about to end
I looked up at Anna
She turned back to look at me
It's best to kill the ones that matter
Render blind the ones who see
But oh, Marjorie
Takes the blade and walks away from me
Oh, Marjorie
Love like blood is pouring out of me
Oh, Marjorie
My heart won't stop bleeding over me baby
[solo over F#m and B?]
Oh, I can't shut it in
It's got far too many doors to block the wind
Oh, I can't shut it in
It's got far too many doors to block the wind

Intro.: - - - -
A E
Wasted in the afternoon
G D
Waiting on a train
A E
I woke up in pieces and Elizabeth
G D
Had disappeared again
I wish you were inside of me
Hope that you're OK
I hope that you're resting quietly
I just wanted to say
Chorus:
Good, Goodnight, Elizabeth
Goodnight Elizabeth, Goodnight
Good, Goodnight, Elizabeth
Goodnight, Elizabeth, Goodnight
We couldn't all be cowboys
So some of us are clowns
Some of us are dancers on the midway
Roam from town to town
Well I hope that everybody
Can find a little flame
I say my prayers and I set myself one fire
And I walk out on the wire, once again
I said
[chorus]
Well I wait for you in Baton Rouge
I miss you down in New Orleans
I wait for you while she slips in something comfortable
And I miss you when I'm slipping in between
If you wrap yourself in daffodils
I will wrap myself in pain
And If you're the Queen of California
Baby, I am the King of the Rain
And I said:
[chorus]
