The Golden Meadow Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]1, 2, 3[G][Em][G]
[Em]
South[G]ern wind that blows
In red dust I drove for [Em]miles
[G]Hit the bars, know,
drinking down my sorrow,
I was [Em]ready to die
[G]Lord, it's been a while since we last spoke, I cry,
I [Em]know [G]Lord, please carry me to the place
I wanna be in the golden [Em]meadow
[C]In the dark I know [G]I've made
a deal to go without [D]a light
[C]In the dark it's [G]cold and white,
it's angry and pain [D]is mine
The [G]heat's been here for weeks,
it's drying up the lakes
and creeks like a [Em]furnace
[G]Holdin' on so long like the threads
of these old jeans that I'm [Em]tied with
[G]Lord, it's been a while since we last spoke,
I cry, I [Em]don't know
[G]Lord, please carry me to the place
I wanna be in [Em]the gold
[C]In the dark
I know [G]I've made a deal to go but I [D]lied
[C]In the dark it's [G]not why this
anger and pain [D]is mine
[Am]I only told you ca[Em]use I
loved you but [D]I'm wild
[Am]I only told you caus[Em]e I loved you and I'm[D]
[C]a liar[G][D][C][G]
[D][C][G][D][C][G]
[D]
Sum[G]mer wind that blows,
in the red dust
I drove for [Em]miles
I [G]hit the bars, know,
drinking down my sorrows
I [Em]was ready to die
[G]But it's been a while since we last spoke, I cry,
I [Em]know [G]Lord, please carry me to the place
I want to be in the golden win[Em]dow
[C]In the dark
I know [G]I made a deal to go but I l[D]ied
[C]In the dark explain [G]why this
anger and pain is [D]mine
[C]In the dark I know [G]I made
a deal to go [D]but I lied
[C]I'm a dog on a [G]walk,
make a deal to go for that [D]land
