WRECKING BALL - Gillian Welch / David Rawlings
SOUL JOURNEY song 10
Capo 7 Orig capo 5
G Look out boys, 'cause I'm a C rollin' G stone
D That's what I was when I C first left G home
C I took every secret that I'd G ever known
And Em headed D for the C wall
Em Like a D wrecking G ball
G Started down on the C road to G sin
D Playin' bass under a C pseudoGnym
C The days were rough and it's G all quite dim
But my Em mind cuts D through it C all
Em Like a D wrecking G ball
C Oh, G Em just a little deadhead
C Who is G watching, C who is G watching?
C I's G Em just a little deadhead
A C fallen G daughter C on a scholarGship
D Well, I gottired and C let my G average slip
C Then I's a farmer G in the pogonip
Where the Em weed that D I C recall
Em Was like a D wrecking G ball
Instrumental
G I met a lovesickdaughter C of the San JoaGquin
D She showed me colors I'd C never G seen
C An' drank the bottom out of G my canteen
Then Em left D me in the C fall
Em Like a D wrecking G ball
G Standin' there, in the C morning Gmist
D A Jack and Coke at the C end of my G wrist
C Yes, I remember when G first we kissed
Though Em itwas D nothing at C all
Em Like a D wrecking G ball
C Oh, G Em just a little deadhead
C Who is G watching, C who is G watching?
C I was G Em just a little deadhead
With C too much G trouble C forme to G shake
D Oh, the weather and the C blindin' G ache
C Was ridin' high until the G '89 quake
Hit the Em Santa D Cruz garden C mall
Em Like a D wrecking G ball
Instrumental End on G
Take off capo drop D End on D
