Intro: E5    C#5    E5  B5  C#5  x2 

          E5            C#5
   Yellow bird, yellow moon
             E5              B5                C#5
   You've arrived while the spring is out of tune
         E5          C#5
   River run, river slow
            E5            B5          C#5
   From the Grand Coulee Dam to Jericho
          E5                B5              C#5
   To the island where the wounded echoes go


E5                    A5                    B5                         C#5    A5
   Over that horizon,  over that horizon, past the streets of Evangeline
             E5             B5               C#5    A5
   There's a boy among the redwood and the pine
           E5               B5            C#5
   Jack of Diamonds you're no friend of mine

E5    C#5    E5  B5  C#5

        E5           C#5
   Seventeen, seven sins
          E5                B5               C#5
   Can we just hide here before the war begins
         E5          C#5
   River run, river rage
            E5                B5             C#5
   From the beak of a yellow bird beside a cage
        E5               B5            C#5
   To a field of broken drums upon a stage


E5                    A5                    B5                         C#5    A5
   Over that horizon,  over that horizon, past the streets of Evangeline
            E5                  B5                C#5    A5
   Past the bedrooms where the wounded girls recline
           E5               B5            C#5
   Jack of Diamonds you're no friend of mine

E5    C#5    E5  B5  C#5  x2 

A5                       E5    
   Where do you go dear?   Who do you know dear?
B5                        C#5
   Who do you rage for tonight?
A5                        E5
   Who do you lie beside?   Who do you sigh beside?
F#5                         Ab5    A5
   Who do you look to for a sign?


         E5             B5               C#5  A5
   I'm a boy among the redwood and the pine
              E5          B5             C#5  A5
   I hear the sirens out on the county line
           E5               B5            C#5  A5
   Jack of Diamonds you're no friend of mine
           E5               B5            C#5
   Jack of Diamonds you're no friend of mine

C#5                E5    C#5    E5  B5  C#5
