[Intro]
E A E
[Verse 1]
E A E
Well, I sure take it with me wherever I go
E A E
And you might like to see it, but it never does show
A E
Like the wind in the valley that never does blow
A E
Like the grass in the back you never did mow
[Chorus]
E A E
It’s a black sky forming on the ridge
A E
It’s a woman weeping standing on the bridge
A E
It’s a price that you pay for walking on the ledge
E A E A E
It’s everything you do with nothing that you did
[Verse 2]
E A E
Well, you might see me driving on the wrong side of town
A E
And you might see me shining when the rain’s come down
A E
Like a diamond that’s hiding in the lost and found
A E
Like a coon that’s running from a red-boned hound
[Chorus]
E A E
It’s a black sky forming on the ridge
A E
It’s a woman weeping standing on the bridge
A E
It’s a price that you pay for walking on the ledge
E
It’s everything you do with nothing that you did
[Harmonica Solo]
E A E A E A E
[Guitar Solo]
E A E
[Verse 3]
E A E
Well, the wood keeps burning in the old wood stove
A E
And the cows keep going where the dun been drove
A E
And the light keeps glowing in dead man’s cove
A E
And the loom keeps spinning where the weep gets wove
[Chorus]
E A E
It’s a black sky forming on the ridge
A E
It’s a woman weeping standing on the bridge
A E
It’s a price that you pay for walking on the ledge
E
It’s everything you do with nothing that you did
[Outro]
