[Intro]
Abm7 C#m7 E C#m7 E C#m7 E B6 C#m7
 
[Verse]
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 B6 C#m7 C#m
On a west virginia plow.
 
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,
              A6      E   C#m
And I?ve been reading revelations,
        B                C#m
With my bare feet in the dirt.
 
Break: C#m7 E C#m7 E C#m7 E B6 C#m7 C#m
 
C#m              C#m7    E
Well the redhead son got older,
    C#m7              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.
 
C#m       C#m7    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.
 
[Chorus]
          A                E
There?s a scarecrow in the garden,
     B              C#m
That looks like Lucifer,
              A6      E   C#m
And I?ve been reading revelations,
        B                C#m
With my bare feet in the dirt.
 
       B
I know every single fence post,
      A          C#m
Every rock to go around,
          B
I?ve been staring at the red oak,
        A                   C#m
Where I know they?ll lay me down.
 
           E
The fields ain?t what they once were,
    C#m        E
The rains just seem to flood,
              C#m7                E
And i?ve been thinking ?bout that river,
          B6              C#m
Wonderin? how it turns to blood.
 
          C#m7
I?ve been sitting here all morning,
      C#m6             E
I was sitting here all night,
          C#m7        E
There?s a Bible in my left hand,
      B            C#m
And a pistol in my right.
