Wisdom Woman

 
F                         C 
Way downtown where the trucks roll by 
                    F 
Thought I heard my baby sigh 
                             C 
It’s a restless world all tattered and torn 
                    F 
Death comes without warning. 

 
F                         C 
It’s a house of cards all ready to fall 
                    F 
Money makes beggars of us all 
                             C 
I lit a match see if I can see 
                    F 
Is the gas tank full or empty 


F                         C 
I bid farewell to the ghosts inside 
                             C 
I went down to the river to see my bride 


    Bb                                       F 
You know, you know, you know, you know, you know 
      C7                   C                      F                                              
She knows, she knows, she knows, she knows, she knows 
    Bb                                       F 
You know, you know, you know, you know, you know

She knows, she knows, she knows, she knows, she knows 


F                         C 
She’s radiant as the bright sunrise 
                             F 
She’s got the moonlight dancing in her eyes 
                         C 
She comes to me at the break of day 
                    F 
Chasing all my cares and fears away

F                         C 
Late in the day with the pale moon rising 
                 F 
Crimson sunset western skies 
                         C 
In a shady grove by the river bend 
                 F 
I go to see my bride again
