Am    G           F          G  
It is rain, it is age, it is poison 
Am    G         F       G  
Supplication to family honour 
Am     G             F           G  
Little children with keys to the temple 
Am  G          F      G  
Red lights and silver dimes 



Em           F              C            Dsus2 
It's waiting for a sun that punishes but seldom shines 
F          G            Em         F    G  
Living and dying in the shadow of Evangeline 




INTERLUDE: Am  G  F  G     Am  G  F  G   


Am     G               F        G  
She is young, like her mother before her 
Am     G            F          G  
Put-up tired at the end of her labours 
Am     G           F      G  
True believing and ever desiring 
Am   G         F        G  
Quiz shows and checkout lines 



Em             F            C                Dsus2 
In porch-light halo ringed about by moss and hanging vines 
F             G              Em         F    G  
She casts the never changing shadow of Evangeline 




Instrumental: Am  G  F  G  (4x) 


Am     G            F            G  
In the bang and the crash of the factory 
Am   G            F         G  
In a hot, cutting season of metal 
Am     G           F        G  
On the floor of an ocean of contracts 
Am   G         F        G  
Skin drums and shrunken heads 


Em              F               C             Dsus2 
Strange dances, long undone, go stamping in between the lines 
F           G              Em         F    G  
Old gods, incarnate in the shadow of Evangeline
