The Devil Makes Three - Johnson Family chords
Highlighted Show chord diagrams
This is a fantastically dark song. It has the feel of an evil circus. If there is a hell, they play this song in hell and the people of hell enjoy it. To create the waltzy quality, alternate the bass note with the note on the same fret a string below. For the Em in the verse, use the fifth string bar chord on the seventh fret. Bm Em Born to a good father I have no excuse F# Bm I could say I blame someone but what would be the use Bm Em When I learn to travel now is when I learn to steal F# Bm F# Bm To ride without a ticket now along the lines of steel [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-devil-makes-three/349595.html ] E A Oh you don't know the things I have seen D D7 G F# Twenty years out on the road with the Johnson Family E A Oh you don't know the cages I have seen D D7 G F# Twenty years in and out of the Johnson Family I'd harnessed stones and took them to the fence I found my heart by moved the shop and always made the rent When I met old George now he showed me to the box Fresh out the night oh from the day now the money never stops Oh you can't know the cages I have seen In and out over the years of the Johnson Family Oh you can't know the troubles I have seen Twenty years out on the road with the Johnson Family Call me a thief and a liar now you know you would be right Straight as an arrow I sit here tonight All my debts too heavy boys I cannot pay them down I pawn my watch and take a walk down to the sea to drown Oh you can't know the things I have seen Twenty years out on the road with the Johnson Family Oh you can't know the cages I have seen Twenty years out on the road with the Johnson Family  |
