 - (As transcribed above)
 On the old forgotten crossways where the fourteen rivers did meet
The  bones of our elders were lying in the street
On  the dark and dusty desert like a ghost I've flown
I  barely cried wherever I'd ride I ride I never found a home
Woe  on me
 Somehow  I will feel more free
To  wallow in the empty headed peace
Where  the plain hearted sorrows never cease
I  am just a ramshackle I go from town to town
Where  there is no shelter I lay down on the grown
I've  killed for no reason I've pissed upon a kind
Cost  them all and burned the bone when I've had the time
Woe  on me
 Somehow  I will feel more free
To  wallow in the empty headed peace
Where  the plain hearted sorrows never cease
Well  there's saints and there are animals they've taken what they could
And  it's written in the pages to do just what they should
Well  they stood the test and burned the rest and tore them limb from limb
Like  a fashion with no passion they open up their skin
Woe  on me
 Somehow  I will feel more free
To  wallow in the empty headed peace
Where  the plain hearted sorrows never cease

[G] - (As transcribed above)
On the old forgotten crossways where the fourteen rivers did meet
[G]The bones of our elders were lying in the street
[G]On the dark and dusty desert like a ghost I've flown
[G]I barely cried wherever I'd ride I ride I never found a home

[C]Woe[D] on m[G]e
S[Am]omehow I will feel more f[D]ree
[G]To wallow in the empty headed pe[C]ace
[Am]Where the plain hearted sorrows never ce[D]ase

[G]I am just a ramshackle I go from town to town
[G]Where there is no shelter I lay down on the grown
[G]I've killed for no reason I've pissed upon a kind
[G]Cost them all and burned the bone when I've had the time

[C]Woe[D] on m[G]e
S[Am]omehow I will feel more f[D]ree
[G]To wallow in the empty headed pe[C]ace
[Am]Where the plain hearted sorrows never ce[D]ase

[G]Well there's saints and there are animals they've taken what they could
[G]And it's written in the pages to do just what they should
[G]Well they stood the test and burned the rest and tore them limb from limb
[G]Like a fashion with no passion they open up their skin

[C]Woe[D] on m[G]e
S[Am]omehow I will feel more f[D]ree
[G]To wallow in the empty headed pe[C]ace
[Am]Where the plain hearted sorrows never ce[D]ase
