The Band 1968 (Robbie Robertson) from Big Pink
G7 G C
G C
She reads the leaves and she leads the life
G D
That she learned so well from the old wives
Em D C
It's so strange to arrange it, you know I
D
wouldn't change it
Em D C
But hear me if you're near me, can I just
D
rearrange it?
G7
The watchman covers me
With his remedy
D
I can't see and it's hard to feel
C G
I think his magic might be real
G7 G C
G G7 C
I can't get to you from your garden gate
G D
You know it's always locked by the magistrate
Em D C
Now he don't care why you cry, he thinks it's
D
just a lie
Em D C D
To get out, I don't doubt that you'd make a try
G7
If the good times get you through
I know the dogs won't bother you
D
We'll be gone in moonshine time
C G
I've got a place they'll never find
G7 G C
G C
You know I do believe in your hexagram
G D
But can you tell me how they all knew the plan?
Em D C
Did you trip or slip on their gifts you know were
D
just a con?
Em D C D
You knew it, why d'you do it, I've been hiding in
the dawn
G7
Now I must be on my way
I guess you really have to stay
Inside the mission walls
D C G
Down in Modark, Arkansas
G7 G C
