Dead River

[G] [Bm] [G] [Bm] [Am] [C] [G] [Am] [G]

[G]My girl is [Bm]gone with the wind
and I am bl[G]own in million [Bm]pieces
[Am]so tired of [C]love and playing [F]games
infected by my [D]hate

[G]Says John and [Bm]looks at himself
in his [G]late great grandma's m[Bm]irror
[Am]left hand is so [C]very heavy from the [F]weight
of Smith and from [D]Wesson

[Bm]hush Johnny,

Jesus' gonna come here

find your ass

long before the police gets you
[Am]wind will keep blowing
[C]man will keep moaning
[F]dead river keep on floating
and [D]floating and floating for[G]ever  [Bm]
forever [Am]and ever    [C]
please bel[G]ieve me    [Am]       [G]

[G]So Johnny s[Bm]ays to himself
have you [G]really thought this [Bm]over?
[Am]my god, my i[C]mpulse tells me [F]so
so I guess I [D]have.

[G]But when she [Bm]finds that you're gone
And your [G]revenge has been ac[Bm]complished
[Am]you'll burn in [C]hell in all eterni[F]ty
so really what's the [D]point

[Bm]but maybe

Jesus' gonna save

everyone will know

that I did the right thing
[Am]Preachers keep on knowing
[C]sun will keep on glowing
[F]dead river keep on floating
and f[D]loating and floating for[G]ever   [Bm]
forever and [G]ever    [Bm]
forever and [Am]ever   [C]
please be[G]lieve me  [Am]     [G]

I'm so [Bm]sorry that I left you
I'm [Em]sorry that I let you [F]go
[Em]Sorry but I have to kn[F]ow

If it's true what they say
that in the end the only
thing eternal is the death
and the death is forever and

[G]ever    [Bm]
forever and [G]ever  [Bm]
forever and [Am]ever  [C]
please be[G]lieve me  [Am]     [G]
