G                                             C/G 
Caught my eye, in a flash of lightning in the rain 
G                                             D        
Out in the darkness, with a banjo in your hands 

G                                                  C/G      A 
You came into the firelight, to the circle from the gloom 
G                                             D       *thing* 
I was standing child like, while you got yourself in tune 


       D                      C/G                 G 
And a bridge player, could be an all-time player too 
       D                      C/G                 A 
But a knuckleball catcher, only gets one job to do 

   C/G     D                          the move from C/G to D is 
He only gets on job to do             a slide of the whole form 
                                      two frets up

G                                             C/G 
You played your melody, it was too much for me 
G                                             D        
It froze my flesh down, to minus nine degrees 

G                                                  C/G      A 
I was passing a grave yard, full of flowers on mother?s day 
G                                             D       *thing* 
That?s the last time I let a stranger rip my heart this way

Now a good mother, could be a dashboard drummer to 
       D                      C/G                 A 
And a bridge player, be an all time player when he?s through 
C/G     D        
But a knuckleball catcher, only gets one job to do

When your trial was finished, you slipped out in the quiet 
Not trying to follow, my shoes just caught on fire 

So I... searched the camp ground, I never saw your face again 
Well you had, a devil woman, just a bluegrass friend 
Cause a left-winger, could be a bluegrass singer too, and that?s a hard lonesome truth 
And some hard liquor, could make a guitar picker out of you 
But a knuckleball catcher, only gets one job to do 

Tu-do-do
