Campfire Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Oh my [D]my, [G]oh [D]I guess
That I've [G]done my time,
now I've laid to [D]rest
[G]There's a campfire ins[D]ide my [G]sou[D]l
And it [G]bil[D]lows[Bm]

[Verse 2]
And the [Bm]sky was a [D]thousand years o[G]ld
[Bm]Always kept time[D] in my back pock[G]et
[Bm]No man, [D]goddamn,
[G]came to take my soul
[Bm]Shut the d[D]oor, then [G]lock it

[Verse 3]
And where have [D]all of [G]my friend[D]s gone
And [G]where did [D]all of [G]my friend[D]s go
And [G]where have all of my friend[D]s gone
They [G]billow
[D][G]

[Verse 4]
Thought [Bm]that I [D]saw Jessi, she was
[G]sitting in a crowd
[Bm]Thought that I [D]saw Jessi, then I
[G]got to feeling proud
To [Bm]ever have known [D]someone
so [G]pretty and so sweet
Who [Bm]every time she [D]sang a song
it'd [G]sweep me off me feet

[Verse 5]
But [G]oh my [D]my, [G]oh [D]I guess
That she [G]did her [D]time,
now she's [G]laid to [D]rest
There's a [G]campfire inside her [D]soul
Still [G]bil[D]lows

[Interlude 1]
[G][Bm][G]

[Verse 6]
Lay your head on my [G]pillow
There's a fire inside you,
and that's why [D]you [G]billow

[Verse 7]
[G]Stay calm, stay calm, and give me your [C]palm
[G]A son[D]g, a s[G]ong for you

[Verse 8]
[G]I walked to town, devil one side of me
[D]Held by an angel put poems
inside of me
[G]Down to my mouth said won't
you recite to me, [D]okay
[G]Every first Wednesday there
goes that sound again
[D]Sun's going down and
she's a sundowner
Stay [G]calm, stay calm,
and give me your palm
[D]Give me your palm,
and I'll sing you a song
[G]Young kids smoke cigarettes
out on the avenue
[D]Sun's going down so you
might as well have a few
[G]Hey who are you? Did you hear
the news?
[D]Anthony's dead, and Poor Richard too.
They [G]billow, they billow,
and it makes me nervous
They [D]whittled a fiddle from
wood in our service
[G]Now that it's dusk,
kids scatter the avenue
[D]Hey who are you? I'm a sundowner too
