The Flatlanders - Neon Of Nashville E She was raised on a river A G#m F#m By the chapel where the chruch bells peal E between a line of peach trees A G#m F#m and a brown tobacco field E Her eyes shown turquois A G#m F#m And her hair was a water fall B7 and everyone from miles around E swore that she'd go far A B7 E They sing of her beauty in georgia A B7 E And on the carolna coast A B7 E Down in the neon of nashville F#m B7 E They almost seem to sing of her like she was a ghost The city lights lured her and the glitter of the silver stage Her beauty was so astounding And it made her too easily made High society dragged her down where the loneliness was to much to bear she faded from the lime light And noone knew just where Chorus Someone said they saw her Years later at the bottom of main A fifth of whiskey in her hand Codine in her brain When they hummed her song about the peach trees And a brown tobacco field her eyes grew distant she whispered There's the chapel where the church bells peal
