[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Katie gone and killed
the unwed partners
On [G]the chalk tool -less banks
of the New [D]Orleans
She'd have fought them hard
and seasoned it with something good
And she'd [G]fold her robes
all diced into [D]her greens
She was [A]an old soul on the highway
The [G]in terstate runs both
ways when [D]it's dry
Spinley trees in Cyprus called Corona
Like a [G]baby singing out his [D]ABCs
Black's a cinder star,
she built it out of picture frames
In the [G]bones of Irish scholars
lost to [D]time and lost to me
But a [A]stiff wind on a spillway
will [G]take its brothers down
without their [D]names
Born a [A]tenterhooks
a beast of [G]phoenix rises,
[C]something [D]rises
She's a sister of a Spendthrift
or a magazine
With a [G]crystal ball or a deck of
spades an[D]d dice
Cryin' half her life she
can't get how she's
But the [G]blue blot on the paper
sure look[D]s nice
And she's [A]lost her love to speedways
And the [G]hazy back and forth
of the yellow [D]stripes
He was the [A]best buck out of who's
Though Morty [G]never earned a three
His [D]lady is right
And a siren's call,
we're taking out at Sunday's best
With our [G]black -armed brothers,
beads in our planes [D]to fly
Singing hey -ho's and we live in America
On a [G]shell bed shack
or somewhere cool [D]and dry
And no [A]matter what they tell me,
I am bound [G]an d true
And they take my [D]rest
We're on a [A]bird perch to the old south
The decades [G]walk through
something stiff [D]as this
And no [A]matter what they tell me
I am [G]bound to turn, [C]bound to [D]turn
You
