I wanna tell you a story Dm G Em Ain't got no characters in it but me Am I wanna sing you a sad song Dm G Em Most of it I don't expect you to believe Am It starts off just the whiskey and wine Dm G Em Some miles of travel and some real good times Am But it ends in a dark corridor Dm G Em Where there ain't no windows and there ain't no doors Am Well that's me Dm G Em Just a' drinkin off this bottle and a'driftin out to sea Am Well that's me Dm G Em Just a' sittin here starin and a' shakin like a leaf Am Well that's me Dm G Em Just a' leanin on my shovel in this graveyard o' dreams Am Yeah that's me Dm G Em Am Just a' leanin on my shovel in this graveyard o' dreams Am I wanna take you to a shipwreak Dm G Em A thousand miles underneath the Black sea Am Looks like everybody's sleeping Dm G Em But look close they are dead indeed Am I wanna lead you to an armchair Dm G Em Deep back in the files of my mind Am I wanna sit you in the candle's light Dm G Em Where I've been spendin all o' my time Am Well that's me Dm G Em Just a' drinkin off this bottle and a'driftin out to sea Am Well that's me Dm G Em Just a'sittin here starin and a' shakin like a leaf Am Well that's me Dm G Em Just a' leanin on my shovel in this graveyard o' dreams Am Yeah that's me Dm G Em Am Just a' leanin on my shovel in this graveyard o' dreams
