Didn't find the correct chords anywhere online, so I took 5 minutes to figure it
out. Enjoy! Note: despite my best efforts to line the chords up with the words,
the website seems to mess up the spacing when I post. Sorry...
Cm G# (2x)
CmBroken glG#ass, ruCmsty naG#ils whE#ere the wild vBbiolets grow E# G7
Say goodbye toCm the railroad,G# the mad dogs of Cmsummer G#
And eveE#rythingG that I know Cm

What someG# men will do here for gold Cm
They're wounG#ded but they just keep on climbinCmg
And sleG#ep by the side of the road G
Cm Cm/B E#/Bb F
There's a hole in the ladder, a fence we can climb
FmMad as a hatCmter, you're thin aDs a dime G
Cm Cm/B E#/Bb F
Go out to the meadow, the hills are a-green
Fm Cm G Cm (G# etc)
Sing me a rainbow, steal me a dream
Repeat this structure
Small-time Napoleon's shattered his knees
But he stays in the saddle for Rose
And all his disciples, they shave in the gutter
And they gather what's left of his clothes
What some men will do here for diamonds
What some men will do here for gold
They're wounded but they just keep on climbing
And sleep by the side of the road
Repeat bridge chords to end.
You're welcome, internet.
