[Intro] D G A G A G Bm A [Verse 1]
Well DI met the queen of Iowa She was dDying on a couch in the suburbs And with aDll of the things she was dying of She was Dmore alive than the others
[Prechorus]
She was Gpretty as a flower in a crystal vase It Dlights up the room as it withers away She Gopened her eyes When she Dheard the music play
[Chorus]
We sang a Ghymn to the rhythm of the river that flows DDown from the mountain of the Holy Ghost GInto the souls Of those who know His name D Like the Queen of IGowa D She was the Queen of GIowa
[Instrumental] Bm A G Em A D [Verse 2]
Her Dmajesty was all ablaze She was Dburning hot but not consumed Our Dshoes removed in that holy place In the Dhallowed ground of the living room
[Prechorus]
Well I Gbowed down low and I kissed her hand And we Draised a toast to the Promised Land GI saw the tears of joy Run down her faceD
[Chorus]
We sang a Ghymn to the rhythm of the river that flows DDown from the mountain of the Holy Ghost GInto the souls Of those who know His name D Like the Queen of IGowa D She was the Queen of GIowa
[Bridge]
AI could see my illusions scatter BmEvery time she drew a breath AI could see the heart of the matter: The Gheart is a matter of life and death Well I'll never be the same D
[Instrumental] D G A G A G Bm A [Verse 3]
Well we sDang about oceans of love again As she Dstared past the ceiling and the sky above Two Dcourt musicians, it was me and Ben We were Dsinging for the Queen of Iowa
[Chorus]
We sang a Ghymn to the rhythm of the river that flows DDown from the mountain of the Holy Ghost GInto the souls Of those who know His name D There was Gpeace like a river in a valley of bones It fDills the valley up and it carries them home To Gcome alive again In the river of DGrace Like the Queen of GIowa D She was the Queen of IGowa D Long live the Queen of GIowaD She was the Queen of IGowa D
