C# Fm
Colorado passes by like writing on a wall
F# C#
Headed eastward down to New Orleans
C# Fm
Dippin' into Texas as the stars are fading out
F# G#
There's still a lot of country in between
A#m F# C#
When I left California I was 29 years old
F# C# D#m C# G#
And the world just spun me around
C# F# C#
Now I watched Louisiana scroll across the window pane
D#m F#
And I face in the direction I am bound
D#m C# G# C# F#
Co-ver up the sun
D#m C# G# C# F#
Let the river run
D#m C# G# C# F#
Make that water come
C#
Wash me away
C# Fm
Me, Clifton, and the king of cats, we sat down in the road
F# C#
Pedro said, "Boys, we're three of a kind,"
C# Fm
He said "I sat with river rats and hung my hat with diplomats
F# G#
Had four brothers once upon a time"
A#m F# C#
He said they toured the country far away from the Rio Grande
F# C# D#m C# G#
And the road just wore them down
C# F# C#
So they bought a house beside a lake, outside of New Orleans
D#m F# G#
And they stared in the direction of the escalating sound
D#m C# G# C# F#
Cover up the sun
D#m C# G# C# F#
Let the river run
D#m C# G# C# F#
Take this good man's son
C#
And wash him away
C# Fm
Well Sister Indecipherable is talkin to a wall
F# C#
Back in New York city, she's a queen (New York she's a queen)
C# Fm
Well, resurrect or genuflect, she saves the one she can't protect
F# G#
Keeps the chapel Pris- if not Sis-tine
A#m F# C#
She drinks Absinthe mixed with Kerosene to keep herself upright
F# C# D#m C# G#
But the world still brings her down
C# F# C#
If you can't keep your shit together when God is on your side
D#m F#
What chance do you have when he's not around?
D#m C# G# C# F#
Cover up the sun
D#m C# G# C# F#
Make that water run
D#m C# G# C# F#
Let the river come
C#
To wash me away
C# Fm
People of the Mardi Gras, in their Tuesday best
F# C#
Waiting for the South to rise again
C# Fm
Children of Geronimo grieving for the West
F# G#
Feather-dressed and marching their refrain
A#m F# C#
Oh in the dark of Armstrong Park the marching bands attend
F# C# D#m C# G#
But they never make a sound
C# F# C#
Just a quiet prayer for Congo Square, a silent conversation there
D#m Cb G#
With the night to rest our eyes in we just look to the horizon for the change
D#m C# G# C# F#
Cover up the sun
D#m C# G# C# F#
Let the river run
D#m C# G# C# F# C#
I pray the waters come to wash me away
D#m C# G# C# F#
Colour in the sky
D#m C# G# C# F#
Make that diesel fly
D#m C# G# C# F# C#
Oh, just lay me down to die and just take me away.
