The Sunken Lands.
Rosanne Cash.
Album: The River & The Thread.
Capo 2.
 
Am   G       C
Five cans of paint,
        G
And the empty fields,
        Dm           Am
And the dust reveals.
 
Am       G   C
The children cry,
    G
The work never ends,
              Dm            Am
There's not a single friend.
 
F6                G
Who will hold her hand,
       C      Dm    Am G C G Dm7 Am
In the sunken lands?
 
Am      G   C
The mud and tears,
         G
Melt the cotton balls,
       Dm        Am
It's a heavy toll.
 
Am        G   C
His words are cruel,
         G
And they sting like fire,
         Dm           Am
Like the devil's choir.
 
F6                    G
But who will hold her hand,
       C      Dm
In the sunken lands?
 
Am G C G Dm Am G C G Gm Am
 
Am     G   C
The river rises,
        G
And she sails away,
          Dm        Am
She could never stay.
 
Am      G       C
Now her work is done,
       G
In the sunken lands,
             Am         G C G Dm F Am Am7 A Am
There's five empty cans.
