Rock Salt & Nails Chords by Timmyty

[Intro]

[Verse]
G C G                                                  C   
■ ■ ■ By the banks of the river where the willows hang down
G         D          D    Em     C                    G     G C
■ And the wild birds they warble ■ with a low moaning sound ■ ■
G D               Em     C                      G    G C
■ Way down in the hollow ■ where the river runs cold ■ ■
G                      F        C                  G        C
■ It was there I first listened ■ to the lies that you told ■
G                 C    G       C        G          G C
■ Now I lie on my back ■ and I see your sweet face ■ ■
G         Gbm    D        Em C            G    
■ And the past I remember ■  ■ time can't erase
        D           Em       C                      G    
And the letters you wrote me ■ they were written in shame
                     F          C              G      
And I know that your conscience ■ still echoes my name

[Verse]
                       C          G                             C
Now if the ladies were blackbirds ■ if the ladies were thrushes ■
G          D             Em    Em C               G            C
■ Well I'd lie there for hours ■  ■ in the chilly cold marshes ■
G            D          Em        C                      G     C
■ And if the woman were squirrels ■ with them high bushy tails ■
G                F       C                    G     C
■ I'd fill up my shotgun ■ with rock salt and nails ■


[Chorus]
G                F       C                    G    
■ I'd fill up my shotgun ■ with rock salt and nails
