N.C.
I want to believe in myself once again
So I dream of a man whose hopes never end
To kiss with a girl who's as lovely as you
I'd give you my heart, if you gave me the truth

    C5                                  G5
And for every tear that is lost from an eye
    E5                     A5
I'd dig me a well where no man could destroy
  C5                                  G5
I want to believe in a freedom that's bold
    E5
But all I remember is the freedom of old

fig. 1

(with variation of fig. 1)
Well I lost me a wife, so I found me a plane
Flew all the way to California
Continues after the ad
This mess in my head is a mess getting out
Ya drink too much coffee, I drink too much stout

    C5                                    G5
But after a while, when my mouth's not so dry
     E5                                      A5
I'll dance up a storm, sure life's looking fine
       C5                             G5
But as darkness falls, I return to my bed
      E5
Don't ask me more questions, don't f**k with my head

(with variation of fig. 1)
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule

N.C.
The buildings they shake but my heart it beats still
Oh mother of Jesus, I feel pretty ill
I want to go home where my feet both feel safe
But there ain't no jobs in the old free state

   C5                               G5
So I must remain in my new adopted land
    E5                       A5
I'm doing the best, Hell I'm doin' all I can
   C5                                     G5
So next time you see me, don't ask for my name
  N.C.
For I am the King and sure long may I reign

(with fig. 1)
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule

I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
