Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Saddle  up the horses and wear your Sunday best
Sing  your Sacred Harp, you be holier than the rest
Fill  up the room with a grand and a thunderous song
Let  it rattle out the windows, let it spill out on the lawn
Shout,  shout your praises to the man who kissed the Lord
To  the back stabbing brother that betrayed all of this world
Your  Judas!
 (chords remain the same for the rest of the song really)
 Yea, though you may walk in the valley in the dark
 There's no greater evil than the darkness in your heart
 Your stun guns, bloodhounds, needle and your razor wire
 Your nylon shackle whipping post and your high tech burning tire
 Your Judas!
 Whiplash crack across the back, across the arms
 Although you bound his feet, he running fast he running hard
 Through them crickets in the corn and them horses in the field
 Hear the "caw, caw" of the crows
 See the devil at the wheel y'all, Judas!
 Go on down to Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas,
 Oklahoma, Texas, Kentucky, Florida, Louisiana and Tennessee,
 Georgia, Carolina, Carolina.
