Master of Sparks Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]
[G][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Am]High class
Slim came floatin' in
[Dm]Down from the county line.[Am]
Just gettin' right on Saturday night,
[Dm]Ridin' with some friends of [F]mine.
They [Am]invited me just to come and see
[Dm]Just what was on their [Am]minds
And then I took my first long look
[Em]At the Master of Sparks on h[Dm]igh.
[Am]In

[Verse 2]
the back of Jimmy's Mack
[Dm]Stood a round steel [Am]cage
Welded into shape by Slim,
[Dm]Made out of sucker [Am]gauge.[F]
[Am]How fine, they cried,
now with you inside,
[Dm]Strapped in there safe and [Am]sound.
I thought, my-o-my,
how how how the sparks will [Em]fly
If that thing ever hit [Dm]the ground.
[Am]Slim

[Verse 3]
was so pleased when I had eased
[Dm]Into his trap of [Am]death.
He had slammed the door
but I said no more
And [Dm]I thought I'd breathed
my last [Am]breath.[F]
We was [Am]out in the sticks
down Highway Six
An[Dm]d the crowd was just
[Am]about right.
The speed was too, so out I flew
[Em]Like a stick of rollin' dynam
[Dm]ite.

[Interlude 1]
[Am]
[Gm][G][Em]

[Verse 4]
When I [Am]hit the ground you
could hear the sound
[Dm]And see the sparks a cou[Am]ntry mile.
End over end I began to spin
[Dm]But the ball started runnin' w[Am]ild.[F]
[Am]But it was too late as I met my fate
And [Dm]the ball started gettin' h[Am]ot.
But through the sparks and
the flame I knew that the claim
[Em]Of the Master of Sparks was go[Dm]ne.

[Outro 1]
[Am][Em]
