Just some variants of the C chord, I’m sure he plays a few more different ones.
[Verse 1]
Play main riff over verses and between verses
There’s Galways the creaks and the strangest sounds
John Brown’s body was never found
But the Clocals see him walkin’ round
[Main riff]
[Verse 2]
There’s a ‘Gfor sale’ sign on the old farm roads
There’s a silo empty and done for
The Cplace just ain’t the same no more
G
[Chorus]
Now it’s Cshinin’ all them different ways
DCrimson blues and yellow shades
There’s Csnow up in the way
And those clouds still full of Grain
[Verse 3]
There’s Gwork in town or so they say
Just blessed to fill our hands today
God Cknows if it will ever pay
G
[Chorus]
And we Cfill our hands with wood and steel
DAnd grace is a woman we all long to feel
You Cknow someday we will
You know someday we Gwill
[Violin Solo]
[Verse 4]
There’s Galways the creaks and the strangest sounds
John Brown’s body’s up and walkin’ round
Countin’ Call the riches that he’s found
G
[Chorus]
And he Cthrows it all in that wishing well
DMade it home in the morning hail
There’s Csnow up in the way
Something’s gotta give
And those clouds still full a Grain
