[Verse]Am CI came in late SeptemberAm CThe youngest one of threeAm CAnd my sisters off and marriedG AmSo the land was left to me[Chorus]F CThere's a scarecrow in the gardenG AmThat looks like LuciferF AmAnd I've been reading RevelationsG AmWith my bare feet in the dirt[Verse]GI know every single fencepostF AmEvery rock that goes aroundGI've been staring at the red oakF AmWhere I know they'll lay me down[Verse]Am CThe fields ain't what they once wereAm CThe rains just seem to floodAm CAnd I've been thinking about that riverG AmWondering how it turned to blood[Outro]Am CI've been sitting here all morningAm CI was sitting here all nightAm CThere's a bible in my left handG AmAnd a pistol in my right
