For dignity

Blind man breakin out of a trance
Puts both his hands in the pockets of chance

I went to the wedding of Mary-Lou
She said I dont want nobody see me talkin to you
Ab                                       Eb
Said she could get killed if she told me what she knew
              Ab Eb
About dignity
Bb
I went down where the vultures feed
Ab                                          Eb
I would've gone deeper, but there wasnt any need
         Ab                         Eb             Fm
Heard the tongues of angels and the tongues of men
                        Bb
Wasn't any difference to me
Eb
Chilly wind sharp as a razor blade
House on fire, debts unpaid
Ab                                         Eb
Gonna stand at the window, gonna ask the maid

Drinkin' man listens to the voice he hears
In a crowded room full of covered up mirrors

Lookin into the lost forgotten years
             Ab Eb
For dignity

Met Prince Phillip at the home of the blues
Said hed give me information if his name wasn't used
Ab                                   Eb
He wanted money up front, said he was abused
           Ab Eb
By dignity
Bb
Footprints runnin cross the silver sand
Ab                            Eb
Steps goin down into tattoo land
Ab                                       Eb     Fm
I met the sons of darkness and the sons of light
                         Bb
In the bordertowns of despair
Eb
Got no place to fade, got no coat
I'm on the rollin river in a jerkin boat
Ab                               Eb

Sick man lookin' for the doctors cure
Lookin' at his hands for the lines that were

            Ab Eb
For dignity
Eb
Englishman stranded in the blackheart wind
Combin' his hair back, his future looks thin
Ab                            Eb
Bites the bullet and he looks within
           Ab Eb
For dignity
Bb
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed
Ab                              Eb
Dignity never been photographed
    Ab              Eb                Fm
I went into the red, went into the black
                                Bb
Into the valley of dry bone dreams
Eb
So many roads, so much at stake
So many dead ends, I'm at the edge of the lake
Ab                                Eb
Sometimes I wonder what its gonna take 
             Ab Eb
