Bb Dm C Bb

I remember the dark clouds raining dust for days on end

Bb C Dm

Blew all the Earth out to California

C Bb

Just left us here with the wind

Bb Dm

Desperate times, you know everbody's part

C Bb

It's your own lines you'd like to forget

Bb C Dm

Till what you were meets what you've now become

C Bb Dm

And grins and says Hey, haven't we met

Dm Am Bb F C Dm

Bb Dm

Lost my first born that Winter

C Bb

My wife on the first day of Spring

Bb C Dm

So I poured my sweat to the Earth

C Bb

to see what that harvest would bring

Bb Dm

And I remember how the fury

C Bb

just like a plague of locusts

Bb C Dm

Egypt's punishment for sins of pride

C Bb

Is that now what has come over us

Bb Dm C

How much of this was meant to be

Dm C Bb

How much the work of the Devil

C Dm Bb

How far can one man's eyes really see

Dm C Bb Dm

In these days of toil and trouble

Dm Am Bb F C Dm

Bb Dm

Honey, we're all resplendent,

C Bb

Yeah honey, we are all thrift store

C Dm

Like a wine-o with a $20 bill

C Bb

Yeah, forever and eternally yours

Bb Dm

And I can make you promises

C Bb

If you don't expect too much,

Bb c Dm

Yes, and I will run the distance

C Bb

If you'll please, please excuse my crutch

Bb Dm C

How much of this was meant to be

Dm C Bb

How much the work of the Devil

C Dm Bb

How far can one man's eyes really see

Dm C Bb

In these days of toil and trouble

Bb Dm C

How much of this is failing flesh

Dm C Bb

How much a course of retribution

Bb C Dm Bb

My, my, how loudly we plead our innocence

Dm C Bb Dm

Long after we made our contribution
