[Intro]
---------------------
C#m | E | C#m | E 
C#m | E | B   
C#m

[Verse 1]
---------------------
        C#m                E
Well he came from Northern Ireland
          C#m                E
Searching for the free man's ground
       C#m             E
And he came to bet his fortune
     B             C#m
On a West Virginia plow

[Verse 2]
---------------------
B C#m  C#m              E
    He built a house of timber
    C#m              E
And raised a redhead son
          C#m               E
Then they worked the land together
    B                     C#m
And prayed the rain would come

[Chorus]
---------------------
          A                E
There's a scarecrow in the garden
     B              C#m
That looks like Lucifer
          A           C#m
I've been reading Revelations
        B                C#m
With my bare feet in the dirt

[Bridge (1)]
---------------------
C#m | E | C#m | E   
C#m | E | B   | C#m 

[Verse 3]
---------------------
         C#m               E
Well the redhead's son got older
    C#m               E
And took a brown eyed wife
        C#m                  E
And the fields were green as dollars
          B                 C#m
Cause the dirt was black as night

[Verse 4]
---------------------
  C#m             E
I came in late September
    C#m             E
The youngest one of three
       C#m             E
And my sisters off and married
       B                C#m
So the land was left to me



[Bridge (2)]
---------------------
C#m      B
  I know every single fencepost
      A               C#m
Every rock that goes around
          B
I've been staring at the red oak
            A               C#m
Where I know they'll lay me down

[Verse 5]
---------------------
    C#m                    E
The fields ain't what they once were
    C#m                E
The rains just seem to flood
          C#m                 E
I've been thinking about that river
          B                C#m
Wondering how it turned to blood

[Outro]
---------------------
          C#m              E
I've been sitting here all morning
      C#m              E
I was sitting here all night
          C#m         E
There's a bible in my left hand
      B            C#m
And a pistol in my right
