Intro MI (x2)
Verse:
MI LA
Baby's in the back lot breathin' real heavy
SI LA MI
Said the boys in the alley wouldn't leave her alone
MI LA
Mama did her makeup in a terrible hurry
SI LA MI
She finally got ready but the boys were gone
LA SI
Mama don't you worry, night's approachin'
LA SI MI
There's a hole in heaven where some sin slips through
MI LA
Just close your eyes, and dream real steady
SI LA MI
Maybe just a little will spill on you
MI
Chorus
MI LA SI
Dark don't lie
MI
Dreams come true
LA MI
All it takes is one or two
Verse: "Old lady rose, lookin' down her nose..."
Chorus: "Won't be long, I won't be gone..."
Verse: "Those in the know, say so it goes..."
Chorus: "Snake eyes cry, boxcars sigh..."
Chorus: "Dark don't lie, dreams come true..."
(then repeat the A E sequence for: "Maybe just a few will see you through")
(and repeat it twice more without words for the Outtro)
Chords:
MI 022100 LA 002220 SI 224442
Notes:
E* means that the E is decorated by futzing it with an Em (as you can
hear in the song). There is a lot of sliding in the song. Not
currently possessing a slide, or knowing how to tune the guitar to an
appropriately to slide to this song, I just make do by sometimes sliding
the A up to 004440. It sounds pretty good for the chorus.
Apologies in advance for lyrical errors. By the way, does anyone out
there know "Murder, Tonight, in the Trailer Park?"
