Rosemary With a Bible and a Gun Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]As strong as the day was long
Rose[D]mary would sing along
[Em]Wheels rolling steady down [Csus2]the way
The ash[Em]tray, it would fill up twice
The windows [D]down felt nice
As miles [Asus4]stretched the
[Am]twilight [D]of the day[Csus2]

[Verse 2]
Driv[Em]ing up by 55
Mississippi zooming by
Sal[Asus4]vation in th[Em]e cool No[C]vem
ber [Csus2]air
[Em]I'm searching for the mixture
That could [D]paint a pretty picture
[Em]Of t[Asus4]he wind bl[Em]owing through
Rosemary's [Csus2]hair[Em]

[Verse 3]
[Em]
Her [Am]daddy always said she
was [Em]the one
Who made [Am]the light stars
could [Em]wish upon
Rose[Am]mary with a bible [Em]and a gun

[Verse 4]
[Am]I[C][D][Em][Asus4][Em]
was more than smitten
By the [D]words as they [Em]were written
And the [Asus4]opportunit[Em]ies
were waiting [Csus2]there
Our [Em]time was etched in promise
'Til the truth [D]came down upon us
Descend[Em]ing all o[Am]ur h[Em]opes
into [Csus2]despair

[Verse 5]
We [Em]took our leave and headed north
[D]Tank at twenty dol[Em]lars worth
The high[Asus4]way called her name,
[Csus2]like sirens call
[Em]Twenty five and on the run
[D]William Eggleston
[Asus4]Parking lots of neon i[Em]n the fall

[Verse 6]
[C]Her[Csus2] daddy's [Em]eyes[Am]
drew fire into [Em]the sun
[Am]Asked me how I thought I was [Em]the one
His [Am]eyes could be deemed more
Than to [Em]ever cast upon
Rose[Am]mary with a bible and a gun

[Verse 7]
[Em]I gu[Am]ess we drowned the
dark to light the [Em]dawn
This [Am]roller coaster highway can't
com[Em]pare to the fun
Of Mem[Am]phis saturated and
decay[Em]ing on the run
Rose[Am]mary with a bible and a gun
[Em]
