Return Of The Grievous Angel

	  		G                               C     G 
Won't you scratch my itch sweet Annie Rich  
G              D7      G 
And welcome me back to town 
G                              C              G 
Come out on your porch or I'll step into your parlour 
         A7                       D7 
And I'll tell you how it all went down 
G                             G7                      C 
Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels 
      G              G7            C 
And a good saloon in every single town 
    C          D7                      G 
And I remember something that you once told me 
    C                 D7              G 
And I'll be damned if it did not come true 
C               D            G     Bm/F# Em              
Twenty thousand roads I went down, down, down 
    C                D                     G 
And they all lead me straight back home to you 
        Bm             C       D7        G  
Cause I headed West to grow up with the country 
Em                    D7                  G 
Across those prairies with those waves of grain 
      Bm                  C      D7        G 
And I saw my devil, and I saw my deep blue sea 
      C                      D7          C           D    G 
And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne to Tennesee 
G                            C     G 
We flew straight across that river bridge 
           D7        G 
Last night half past two 
G                               C                G      A7 
The switchman waved his lantern goodbye and good day as we 
             D7 
Went rolling through 
G                         G7                   C 
Billboards and truckstops pass by the grievous angel 
G                     D7             G 
And now   I know just what I have to do 
        Bm               C           D  G 
And the man on the radio won't leave me alone 
            Em                D                         G   
He wants to take my money for something I've never been shown 
      Bm                  C      D         G 
And I saw my devil, and I saw my deep blue sea 
      C                      D           C           D    G 
And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne to Tennesee 
G                            C           G 
The news I could bring I met up with the king 
               D7          G 
On his head an amphetamine crown 
                                    C     G  
He talked about unbuckling that old bible belt 
    A7                         D7                          
And headed out for some desert town 
G                             G7                      C      
Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels 
      G                           C 
And a good saloon in every single town 
    C          D                       G 
And I remember something that you once told me 
    C                 D               G 
And I'll be damned if it did not come true 
C               D            G     Bm/F# Em              
Twenty thousand roads I went down  down  down 
    C                D                     G 
And they all lead me straight back home to you 
C               D            G     Bm/F# Em        
Twenty thousand roads I went down down down 
    C                D                     G 
And they all lead me straight back home to you
