Rock Salt And Nails

G                       C        
On the banks of the river where 
               G
the willow hang down
                         Em   C   
Where the wild birds all warble 
                 G
with a low moaning sound
            Em   C                
Down in the hollow where the water
      G
 runs cold
                     F      C     
It was there I first listened to 
                 G
the lies that you told

[Verse]
                G C               
Now I lie on my bed and I see your
       G
 sweet face
               Em       C         
And the past I remember time 
  G
cannot erase

               Em       C    
The letter you wrote me it was 
             G
written in shame
                     F         
And I know that your conscience 
 C              G
still echos my name

[Verse]
                      G    C      
Now the nights are so lonely lord 
            G
sorrow runs deep
           Em  C            
Nothing is worse than a night 
          G
without sleep
           Em  C                 G
I walk out alone and look at the sky
             F  C                 
Too empty to sing too lonesome to 
G
cry

[Verse]
                         G    C   
Now if the ladies were blackbirds 
                   G
if the ladies were thrushes
                  Em  C      
I'd lie there for hours in the 
              G
chilly cold marshes
                    Em    C       
If the ladies were squirrels  with
                 G
 them high bushy tails
                F    C         
I'd fill up my shotgun with rock 
           G
salt and nails
                F    C         
I'd fill up my shotgun with rock 
           G
salt and nails
