^GLook out, Ma, there's a ^Cwhite boat comin' up the ^Griver ^C ^G With a ^Cbig red beacon and a flag and a man on the ^Grail ^C ^G

I think you'ld ^Cbetter call John 'cause it don't look like they're here to de^Bmliver the ^Cmail

And it's ^Bm7less than a mile a^CM7way I ^Bm7hope they hope they didn't come to ^CM7stay

It's got ^Bm7numbers on the side and a ^CM7gun and it's makin^D' big waves

G C G C G Daddy's gone and my brother's out huntin' in the mountains Big John's been drinkin' since the river took Emmy Lou So the powers that be left me here to do the thinkin' And I just turned twenty-two I was wonderin' what to do And the closer they got The more those feelin's grew inter-verse: G C G C G G C G C G G C G C G C Bm C Bm7 CM7 Bm7 CM7 Bm7 CM7 D G C G C G Daddy's rifle in my hand felt reassurin; He told me "Red means run, son, and numbers add up to nothin'" When the first shot hit the dock I saw it comin' Raised my rifle to my eye Never stopped to wonder why Then I saw black and my face splashed in the sky inter-verse Shelter me from the powder and the finger Cover me with the one that pulled the trigger Just think of me as one you never figured Would fade away so young With so much left undone Remember me to my love, I know I'll miss her G C G C G notes: CM7 032000 Bm7 xx4323
