God Forsaken Town
Reckless Kelly
Bulletproof
(Intro)
[Am] [G] [C]
[C]They we say we've got to leave but[F] there's no way to go
[C]This ain't the first time we'v[G]e weathered out a storm
[C]And I ain't got nothing but at [F]least I know it's mine
And I'll be[Am] god damned if I'm leaving here before [G]the day I die
(Chorus)
[F]So let the rain sting my ne[C]ck
[F]Let the mighty Mississippi take this g[Am]od-forsaken to[G]wn
Let the [F]storm and all the fury come and ca[C]rry me away
Take m[Am]e to that place somew[G]here on higher ground[C]
The voices on the radio were cracking off and on
The court is underwater and the levees all but gone
There's children in the treetops and soldiers in the sky
It's too late now to run I'd never make it out alive
(Chorus)
Everyone sit tight help is on the way
I don't think Jr. is going to last another day
We got a sawed off and a red hot .44
So all you looters best come heavy when you're knocking on my door
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
[Em]We all know this crescent city just won'[F]t be the same again C G
And I'll still be standin' when the saints go marching in
(Instrumental ' Play chords from chorus)
X's on the windows say there's no one left inside
If you count the painted numbers you'll know just how many died
And I'm one in half a million so at least I'm not alone
The hurricane is over but the storm keeps raging on
(Chorus)
[F]So let the rain sting my nec[C]k
[F]Let the mighty Mississippi take this god-[Am]forsaken to[G]wn
Let the [F]storm and all the fury come and c[C]arry me away
Take m[Am]e to that place somew[G]here on higher ground[C]
Take m[Am]e to that place somew[G]here on higher ground[C]
