Death Blues

Am  E  Am
Am  E  Am

Am
The cypress trees bare witness
E                   Am
In the crimson light
Am
To the first murder
E                    Am
Death blues, death blues
Am  E  Am
Am
Well, Legba taught three chords
E                Am
To a young man, who lost his wife
Am
Yeah, it went something like
E                     Am
Death blues, death blues

E
In the cauldron you can hear them scream
Am
Death blues
E
In the fields they holler in pain
Am
Death blues
E
And then they whistle the same old tune
Am
Death blues
E              Am
Death blues, death blues
Am E Am
Am E Am

Am
Abraham sang it and David to Ruth
E                                 Am
And Anna taught the little ones their first tune
Am
The day will come when St. John's vision will come true
E                          Am
The trumpets will sound what we’ll hear
E           Am            E            Am
Death blues, death blues, death blues, death blues
Am E Am
Am E Am
Am
Well Noa's still waiting for another flood
E                                        Am
And the king says I forsake you from all that blood
Am
The kingdom is as rotten as the sea is blue
E                              Am
And wherever you turn you'll see death too
E               Am         E             Am
Death blues, death blues, death blues, death blues
E               Am          E            Am
Death blues, death blues, death blues, death blues
