The Specter Of Jasper County

    G                           C            G
The girl down the street saw my ghost on the road
    C            G         D
But I sailed the backyard asleep in my boat
G                       C            G
Both paddles broken, no sail for the wind
  C          G         D            G
A bathtub, a bottle to drown myself in

        C               G             D        G
And she ran through the town like the end was upon us
C              G           D
Screaming like birds above angry high seas
    C         G             D           G
The newspaper boys pulled a high-dollar favor
       C             G             D
And my drunk brother sang of where they could find me

    G                          C         G
The girl told the preacher her vision of doom
   C          G                D
He petted the Book said, "It's slightly too soon"
  G                         C            G
A flashbulb, a nudge, and I left my best dream
    C             G          D          G
And rose like the specter of Jasper County
