Аккорды A. J. LeGrand - Umatilla Princess

[verse 1]
Am
I learned a fella, he ought to keep,
G                Am
some thoughts to himself
Am
Every man, he has a hunger
G                 Am
That he must keep on the shelf
Am
I don’t care what no one says
G                 Am
Because the truth is people change
Am
I stayed on that straight and narrow
G                 Am
But my baby took a different train
Am
I left my past there hidden deep
G                 Am
On the Texas Oklahoma line
Am
But I feel them spirits with me
G                 E
No they’re never too far behind
Am
I miss the nights on the river gambling
G                 Am
Out on a boat in Louisian’
Am
And I recall a loss near full moons bay
G                 Am
On just one single hand

[Chorus]
F                             C
Cause it ain’t hard to keep a job
G                       C G
But a living is hard to make
F                 C
A grown man cries to feel alive
           E
and in his shame he starts to pray
F                  G
He says father not mine
    C   G       Am
but thy will be done
F                 G
I’ll be where you want me
                  Am
before the rising sun

[verse 2]
Am
I met a salesman with a bible
G              Am
In a pinstripe three-piece suit
Am
In one breath he took my money,
G                Am
With the next he spoke the truth
Am
Well the bank has opened up
G                 Am
Overnight they seized the town
Am
All the widows keep on sinking
G                 Am
Like a hound dog bound to drown
Am
I feel the madness creeping in
G               Am
Sanity slips my grip
Am
I hear a string band playing Dixie
G                   E
The war is lost but they don’t quit
Am
Oh my baby left me broken-hearted
G               Am
No man has ever felt so alone,
Am
So now I head down to the corner
G                 Am
The only place I feel at home

[Chorus]
F                             C
Cause it ain’t hard to keep a job
G                       C G
But a living is hard to make
F                 C
A grown man cries to feel alive
           E
and in his shame he starts to pray
F                  G
He says father not mine
    C   G       Am
but thy will be done
F                 G
I’ll be where you want me
                  Am
before the rising sun

[verse 3]
Am
She comes from the reservation
G                   Am
And every night the drunk men ask
Am
Where’s my Umatilla princess
G                Am
I’m only here to see her dance
Am
With a feather in her hair
G               Am
She lays her body bare
Am
she takes them for their money
G               Am
And she leaves them with a stare
Am
See the men thinks she likes dancing
G               Am
Each believes he owns her soul
Am
They don’t realize that beneath her smile
G                 E
Is a pain they’ll never know
Am
No it’s a truth they’ve never heard
G               Am
It’s a truth they won’t accept
Am
That a person doesn’t stand a chance
G               Am
When they’ve never been shown respect

[Chorus]
F                             C
Cause it ain’t hard to keep a job
G                       C G
But a living is hard to make
F                 C
A grown girl cries to feel alive
           E
and in her shame she starts to pray
F                  G
She says father not mine
    C   G       Am
but thy will be done
F                 G
I’ll be where you want me
                  Am
before the rising sun
