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