The Specter Of Jasper County – Iron & Wine
Nghệ sĩ: Iron & Wine
Hợp Âm Chuẩn
A really, *really* deep cut from the Iron & Wine discography. Like, so rare that you probably haven't
heard it unless you picked up a bootleg from somewhere! I'm lucky enough to have such a bootleg, and it's
a shame that this song should be lost to obscurity--it's got some great lyrics, a great little melody,
and it's easy enough for every novice to pick up without any trouble. Key of G, no capo.
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The girl down the street saw my ghost on the road
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
But I sailed the backyard asleep in my boat
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Both paddles broken, no sail for the wind
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
A bathtub, a bottle to drown myself in
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And she ran through the town like the end was upon us
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Screaming like birds above angry high seas
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The newspaper boys pulled a high-dollar favor
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
And my drunk brother sang of where they could find me
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The girl told the preacher her vision of doom
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
He petted the Book said, "It's slightly too soon"
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
A flashbulb, a nudge, and I left my best dream
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And rose like the specter of Jasper County
