Well i went way out 
      G        E   A
North Carolina way
        D        Asus4
To that old graveyard 
         G                 E   A
Where my great grandmother lay 
        G       Asus4
And the day was bright 
      D                G
And i hadn't slept all night 
                  D             Asus4
And they sold the place to some guys 
                  G                Asus4
Who were building graduate student housing

Intro

           D          Asus4
No one had raised any objections
          G                      E A
They were knocking the headstones down
        D       Asus4
And the sun was high 
     G             E A
When i rolled into town
           G                    Asus4
Stood by a nameless hole in the ground
    D                 G
The air was sweet and hot
         D             Asus4
Maybe it was the right grave
G     Asus4
Maybe not

        D           Asus4
but the crows crows crows
G           Asus4
rose, rose, rose from the grave
