C D C D [Verse]
G7 D G7 A long, long time ago in a
D little Texas town
C D Eve made her way to the field below
C D To have a look around, girls, to
C have a look
D around
G7 D G7 Down, down she did go, further
D in the fields
C D When she heard a voice singing sweet and low
C D C Dig in with your heels, girl, dig in with
D your heels
G7 D Eyes wide, heart inside like a gavel
G7 comin'
D down
C D All around her brain was the sweet refrain
C D Keep following the sound, girl, keep
C D following the sound
Continues after the ad
[Chorus]
G C D They'll try to take you for a ride
G C They'll muddy all the good you've
D got inside
Em A7 They'll twist your heart until it's black and
Bm blue [Verse]
C D But don't let 'em keep you down, girl
C D Don't let 'em keep you down
G7 D Miles, miles Eve did go, when at
G7 last she
D came upon
C The source of the sound in the
D watery ground
C D And the night was coming on,
C girls, the night
D was coming on
G7 D Through the wilderness and the cypress trees
G7 D And the night birds all around
C D She made her way to the river's edge
C D And her mother there she found, girls, her
C D mother there she found
G7 D Eyes wide, heart inside like a gavel
G7 comin'
D down
C D When her mother said, come and rest your head
C D I'll tell you what I've found, girl, I'll
C D tell you what I've found [Chorus]
G C D They'll try to take you for a ride
G C They'll muddy all the good you've
D got inside
Em A7 They'll twist your heart until it's black and
Bm blue
C D But don't let 'em keep you down girl
C D Don't let 'em keep you down
