       Storms are on the hill 
Amaj7 
       Always think of Jacob 
A7 
       Always seem to say 
             D 
       The wrong thing at the right time 
Dm 
       But now he's long gone 
A 
       And so are my chances

       Of hearing any good news

       Coming through this time

       To an Illinois farmer 
              D 
       Whose name was Paul

       They never had much but 
A 
       They always had something

       And something's always better

       Than nothing at all

Dmaj7 
       Lived on a dirt road 
Amaj7 
       Never got longer 
A7 
       Now the one I want 
                D 
       Is paved and never ends 
Dm 
       And when I meet a stranger

       All over again

Amaj7 
       Man outside of town

       Says he's from the Book 
            D 
       Of Prophecy and Life

       And the people run to him 
               A 
       Cause they need something holy 
Bm 
       And faith and prayers 
             E 
       Only bathe his appetite

     Lord, won't you save us from the evil in the world?
