F#m          A             E       C#mCrickets are chirpin’, the water is high
          F#m         A            E            F#mThere’s a soft cotton dress on the line hangin’ dry
F#m         A     E       C#mWindow wide open, African trees
F#m       A                E         F#mBent over backwards from a hurricane breeze
      E                    ENot a word of goodbye, not even a note
    F#m           A She gone with the man
       E          F#mIn the long black coat

F#m      A        E        C#mSomebody seen him hanging around
       F#m       A           E            F#mAt the old dance hall on the outskirts of town
          F#m      A             E              C#mHe looked into her eyes when she stopped him to ask
      F#m       A               E           F#mIf he wanted to dance, he had a face like a mask
E                      ESomebody said from the Bible he’d quote
          F#m         A There was dust on the man
       E          F#mIn the long black coat

F#m           A                   E         C#mPreacher was a talkin’, there’s a sermon he gave
        F#m         A             E          F#mHe said every man’s conscience is vile and depraved
    F#m      A          E          C#mYou cannot depend on it to be your guide
          F#m     A         E       F#mWhen it’s you who must keep it satisfied
         E                   EIt ain’t easy to swallow, it sticks in the throat
             F#m          A She gave her heart to the man
       E          F#mIn the long black coat

      D                       AThere are no mistakes in life some people say
      F#m                    E           F#mIt is true sometimes you can see it that way
    D                         ABut people don't live or die, people just float
    F#m           A She went with the man
       E          F#mIn the long black coat

        F#m          A           E                C#mThere’s smoke on the water, it’s been there since June
F#m           A                  E             F#mTree trunks uprooted, 'neath the high crescent moon
         F#m       A                 E        C#mFeel the pulse and vibration and the rumbling force
F#m         A                 E         F#mSomebody is out there beating on a dead horse
    E                             EShe never said nothing, there was nothing she wrote
    F#m           A She gone with the man
       E          [F#m]In the long black coat
