Chords: G,C,Em,Am,C,D
G C
on the sunday after the mason dance
G C
it’s the one day I can remember when
G C
I felt so pure and really at peace with myself
G C
I was in love, the sun sang down victorious
Em G Am D
but the truth is that I have no faith in happiness
Em G
it turns to fear, draws the devils near
Am D
so I jumped the fence
C (walk down to Am)
and went out west

Back to verse chords:
"Abilene
got a sales job as a pharmaceutical rep
lived out of hotels, rental cars and a stowable bag
I drove all day – from hospital pacing and clinic sweats
I drove all night – I couldn’t ever sleep now anyway"
Chorus:
"I tried, but the old devils, they found me in my room
I hid under the covers and cried out as they tore off my sheets
so I went east"
Verse:
"Vietnam
I’m long gone
I’m up the river
way past Mekong"
Chorus:
"but the old devils, they found me in my hut
they poured through the windows, they cornered me
and I cried out, to no one: “I give up.”
End on Am
