Lucinda Williams Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Imports and alt[G]ercations
My fac[D]ulties on a shoe- string vacation
[G]I s[Em]ettled down on a hurt as
big as [G]Robert Mitchum
And listen to Lucinda Williams
[Em]

[Verse 2]
Oh, con[D]venient lies,
[G]rubber knives
I'm a dast[D]ardly villain,
doing belly di[G]ves
[Em]I before E excep[G]t after me
I'm dows[Bm]ing my vitals
at [G]break- [D]neck speed

[Verse 3]
[D]You and your little en[G]tourage
Playing amaz[D]ing little parlor
games in [G]the garage
Like a [Em]jury of my peers
[G]triangulating
My pretty point of exas[Em]peration
Yes we [D]gather for some
[G]of that Catholic juice
And hide [D]behind the shower curtain,
I watch the vir[G]gin spruce
[Em]I'm soaking wet and feel[G]ing funny
The mir[Bm]ror's a mirage,
no wonder [G]I always look so [D]crummy

[Verse 4]
[G]
My heroes are all [A]off in the great [D]beyond
[G]England is [A]old but Atlantis is gon[D]e
[G]Feathers are floating down,
and [A]I can't dodge them
[D]The tar is oozing from my [G]little noggin
[Em]It's ugly [G]ancient residue
[D]There [Bm]ain't no mistaking
[G]what's been abused
[D]

[Verse 5]
[G]Feathers are floating down
and [A]I can't dodge them
The [D]tar is oozing from my [G]little noggin
[Em]It's ugly ancient [G]residue
There [Bm]ain't no mistaking
[G]who's been [D]ac cused
