Man In The Long Black Coat - Mark Lanegan (Bob Dylan)
Capo 2nd fret
Intro:
Em
Em G D Bm
Em G D Em
Em G D Bm
Crickets are chirpin' the water is high
Em G D Em
There's a soft cotton dress on the line hangin' dry
Em G D Bm
Windows wide open African trees
Em G D Em
Are bent over backwards from a hurricane breeze
D
Not a word of goodbye, not even a note
Em G D Em
She'd gone with the man in the long black coat
Somebody seen him hangin' around
At the old dance hall on the outskirts of town
He looked into her eyes when she stopped him to ask
If he wanted to dance he had a face like a mask
Somebody said, from the Bible he'd quote
There was dust on the man in the long black coat
Preacher was talkin' there's a sermon he gave
He said every man's conscience is vile and depraved
You cannot depend on it to be your guide
When it's you who must keep it satisfied
It ain't easy to swallow, it sticks in the throat
She gave her heart to the man in the long black coat
C G
There are no mistakes in life some people say
Em D Em
And it's true sometimes you can see it that way
C G
But People don't live or die, people just float
Em G D Em
She went with the man in the long black coat
There's smoke on the water its been there since June
Tree trunks uprooted neath the high passing moon
Feel the pulse and vibrations and the rumblin' force
Somebody is out there beating on a dead horse
She never said nothin', there was nothin' she wrote
She'd gone with the man in the long black coat
