From the CD "Sky Full of Holes" (2011)
| D A | G | D A | G | D A | G | D Dsus | A |
D A D G Bm
Elizabeth that thundercloud is creeping up the Empire Hill
Em F#m G
There's shadows on the over-pass
Em F#m G
And puddles in the old dirt path
D A D G Bm
Peoria lay silent still in the belly of the overgrown
Em F#m G
All quiet on the open plain
Em F#m G
Footprints to the family plot
A D G A F#m G
Where evermore will restless sorrow sleep in a broken heap
(F# G A)
G G
Cemetery guns go bang, bang, bang
D G
Shooting all the sky full of holes
D F#m G
Twenty-one times in a row
Bm G
For the blue war widow in the gray raincoat
A | D A | G |
On the green grass down below
| D A | G | D A | G | D Dsus | A |
D A D G Bm
Elizabeth our fathers came and settled where the ground was flat
Em F#m G
Drew water from the Indian wells
Em F#m G
Cut timber from the rolling fells
D A D G Bm
Grandaddy-o bled hearth and home for oiling the comp'ny gears
Em F#m G
No rest for the errant ones
Em F#m G
Godspeed their a-reckless sons
A D G A F#m G
Who evermore play their forefathers' hands on the foreign sands
(F# G A)
G G
Cemetery guns go bang, bang, bang
D G
Shooting all the sky full of holes
D F#m G
Twenty-one times in a row
Bm G
For the blue war widow in the gray raincoat
A Bm
On the green grass down below
Em G A
Cemetery guns go bang, bang, bang
D G
Shooting all the sky full of holes
D F#m G
Twenty-one times in a row
Bm G
For the blue war widow in the gray raincoat
A | D A | G |
On the green grass down below
| D A | G | D A | G | D Dsus | A2 |
F#m in the verse is essentially a walk up from the Em chord to the G chord. It can
be played as a full chord, or as a bass note.
