I Am Crazy

C            Am                G
I though I'd like to die where I was born
C             Am                 G
But I've been kicked out with no money
C           Am                  G
You said my voice put splinters in your spine
C            Am               G
The sound of failure and cold water running

[Interlude]
C Am G C C

[Verse]
C          Am                 G
I tried to sleep but couldn't in the storm
C            Am               G
I called for you but knew you wouldn't come
C         Am              G
Send me a remedy for this thing I'm feeling
C  Am        G
I just can't sleep

[Chorus]
C      Am        G         Am     G
Dreams black and blue I am crazy
C    Am G               Am        G
Someday I know I'll fly away just like a sparrow

[Interlude]
C Am G C C

[Verse]
C          Am              G
At night I go and walk out in the fields
C          Am             G
My singing even makes the stones cry

C             Am                    G
I know you'll come back when you've had enough to eat
C                Am                   G
(you'll) hold me close like you might kill me

[Bridge]
       C        G          Am        G
With a gun or a knife or a whip or a stone
F                         G
Bury me with five hundred others

C          G                  Am            G
But in the evening I'll still stand at your gate
F                        Em    G
You'll (just) see me and turn away

[Interlude]
C Am G C Am G

[Chorus]
C      Am        G         Am    G
Dreams black and blue I am crazy
C    Am G               Am
Someday I know I'll fly away
