Jason Ringenburg - Bible And A Gun (with Steve Earle)
Em G Em G
Em G
There's a Full moon out tonight
Em G
and it's a shinein down on me
Em G
and in the purest light
D
the slaves are still not free
so missouri's bound in sorrow
and her woods are draped in pain
and when the sun comes up tomorrow
i'll be on the move again
Em D
and I hear a whisper soft and low
Em D
through every mile I run
Em D
cause I travel through this world of woah
C G C Em
with a bible and a gun with a bible and a gun
every man was made to suffer
and I'm a mighty man I know
and I cannot shake the anger
that keeps me on this road
when they came with bugles sounding
and righteousness decree
and they left me with this vengence
and too for ever feed
Chorus
To turn the other cheek
its the braver thing to do
I wish I had it in me
and they wish they had it too
for tomorrow when we meet
this story will end
and ancient hollow grief
will be our only friend
Chorus 2X
