Balsam Range – Graveyard Blues chords

[Intro]
A  D  A  G  D  A  A  A


[Verse 1]
AI wake up to another day

Sun won't shine, sky's full of gray
            D              AI've got to go, lace up my shoes
              G          D               AI've got them low, down, cold, graveyard blues
AWe were wed, was in the spring

Flowers bloomed, the birds did sing
           D             AOf life to come, I never knew
                   G          D               AThat I'd have them low, down, cold, graveyard blues


[Interlude]
A  D  A  G  D  A  A  A


[Verse 2]
ASo fair and kind, she brought me joy

Soon she gave a baby boy
             D              ABut from our home, fate did remove
                 G          D               AAnd brought them low, down, cold, graveyard blues
AWith broken hearts, we labored on

Day after day, here on this farm
              D                    AWe marked the spot with a stone so smooth
                G          D               AAnd fought them low, down, cold, graveyard blues


[Interlude]
A  D  A  G  D  A  A  A


[Verse 3]
AMy darling died of a broken heart

From her child, she could not part
           D                   AI laid her down, in an earthen tomb
              G          D               AShe shed them low, down, cold, graveyard blues

A  A

[Outro]
AUpon that spot, I often gaze

And place new flowers on their graves
        D                ANothing left on earth to lose
            G          D               AExcept them low, down, cold, graveyard blues
               G          D               AI'll lose them low, down, cold, graveyard blues
