Devil Makes Three - Tow  tab by Valentino Garosi

Capo on third


Em                                      Am
Someone left a child and did not even care
Em                                     B7
Before the first shots of the battle here had even pierced the air
Em                                      Am
Yes, they run now like them children to those arms of mother earth
Em                                     B7
Trying to pretend as if there was a day before their very birth

CHORUS
B7                                                                A
But, me I just grab these ropes that me and mine have left behind
C       				B7
And I stare up to that mountain that I know I got to climb
Em 		    Am	
I keep towin that line   Mmmmmm
Em 		    B7	
I keep towin that line   Mmmmmm

Em                                      Am
But,down in basements choked with smoke child of the past
Em                                     B7
All them dreams come up for air round here but they can only gasp
Em                                      Am
All them old men they sit staring as life slips out of their grips
Em                                     B7
Only to fall and disappear beyond their cracked old fingertips

REPEAT CHORUS

BREAK  Em / Am / Em / B7 / B7 / A / C / B7 

Em 		    Am	
I keep towin that line   Mmmmmm
Em 		    B7
I keep towin that line   Mmmmmm

Em 		    Am	
But down in ditches by that road I call my own
Em                                                          B7
All of you come a cussin' now all and all just throwing stones
Em 		    Am	
Yes they're big men now to settle down and life's so stale and cold
Em                                     B7
As if I could spend my life the way they do just as they're told
B7				A
So if you should find me living low when the miles have passed me by
C				B7
And it seems that I have left now all that I could love behind
Em		      Am
I'm just towin that line   Mmmmmm
Em		        B7	
I'm just towin that line     Mmmmmm
