AMY RAY - CRYING IN THE WILDERNESS
Lyrics are approximate as I can't really hear what she's saying during the chorus!
Play along with the song to get the timing of the chord changes.
Capo 4
E
Bsus
Sent you a thousand words
B
but they only added up to nothing
Bsus
So I'm calling it back
B
to the... honour to hold me...
Bsus E F#
do you have to be the rolling train
Bsus E F#
do you have to be the wounded bird
Bsus E F#
do you have to be the only voice I hear
E
crying in the wilderness
B
Wrote you a thousand songs
Bsus
and not one of them was for singing
B
Cause I get it all wrong
Bsus
Man I guess I really just should have been listening
Bsus E F#
do you have to be the rolling train
Bsus E F#
do you have to be the wounded bird
Bsus E F#
do you have to be the only voice I hear
E
crying in the wilderness
G#m E B F#
Cause I really knew back then I was just a simple ten ...
G#m E B F#
Step to the...
G#m E B F#
Petty officer of failure... acting for a jailer...
G#m E B F#
I heard it.... have some...
E
Bsus
I prayed to God they'd let me keep it,
B
I prayed to God they'd take it away
Bsus
I prayed to God they'd let me have it
B
and save it for a rainy day
Bsus E F#
do you have to be the rolling train
Bsus E F#
do you have to be the wounded bird
Bsus E F#
do you have to be the only voice I hear
E
crying in the wilderness
F#
crying in the wilderness
G#m E B F#
Cause I really knew back then I was just a simple ten ...
G#m E B F#
Step to the...
G#m E B F#
Petty officer of failure... acting for a jailer...
