Vernonia Blues

Hammering on and off between D and Dsus2 and touching on Em D Dsus2 There's a pain the west, D Dsus2 a sinking feeling deep down in their chests. Dsus2 Em A little a girl, a town with her name, Dsus2 Em her daddy died before she had came. Cadd9 Em D To see the place and just how it laid to waste. Dsus2 Em Dsus2 The rain it came and did not stop. Dsus 2 Em Dsus2 All the streets filling up to their tops, Dsus2 Em Dsus2 it's coming up to their knees, Dsus 2 Em Dsus2 the river had its way it did as it pleased. C Em On the water's sheen there's rainbows of gasoline. (Repeat 2x) Dsus2 Em Lord of mine where have you been? Dsus2 Em When there's trouble you are nowhere to be seen. Dsus2 Em A little town like a lamb. Dsus2 Cadd9 Em Well a lion come down and took their dam. Em Cadd9 Dsus2 February was lean, and March came to scream.
