Strum
D-DU-UDU
 x2
  Yellow bird,  yellow moon
  You've arrived  while the spring  is out of tune
  River run,  river slow
  From the Grand  Coulee Dam  to Jericho
  To the island  where the wounded  echoes go
 Over that horizon,  over that horizon, past  the streets of Evangeline
  There's a boy  among the redwood  and the pine
  Jack of Diamonds  you're no  friend of mine
  Seventeen,  seven sins
  Can we just  hide here before  the war begins
  River run,  river rage
  From the beak  of a yellow bird  beside a cage
  To a field  of broken drums  upon a stage
 Over that horizon,  over that horizon, past  the streets of Evangeline
  Past the bedrooms  where the wounded  girls recline
  Jack of Diamonds  you're no  friend of mine
 x2
 Where do you go dear?  Who do you know dear?
 Who do you rage for tonight?
 Who do you lie beside?  Who do you sigh beside?
 Who do you look to for a sign?
  I'm a boy  among the redwood  and the pine
  I hear the sirens  out on  the county line
  Jack of Diamonds  you're no  friend of mine
  Jack of Diamonds  you're no  friend of mine
 the end
