(GUITAR INTRO)
|
|
if I fell off to sleep and did not wake
|
|
a-would the Lord my soul to take
|
|
and could the land that I've known also die
|
|
do you think of you and wonder why
|
|
|
|
down in leatherwood
|
|
that thought we leave behind
|
|
down in leatherwood
|
|
country love's gonna steal your mind
|
|
and we ain't never gonna be blue, be blue
|
|
|
|
was a mad house all flooded by the rain
|
|
or did I once live it in a dream
|
|
a-throwing all good minutes to the sea
|
|
did you know the sky can also bleed
|
|
|
|
down in leatherwood
|
|
that thought we leave behind
|
|
down in leatherwood
|
|
country love's gonna steal your mind
|
|
and we ain't never gonna be blue, be blue
|
|
(GUITAR SOLO)
|
|
|
|
an inner voice, it is telling me my verse
|
|
oh and if you're listening it can only make it worse
|
|
it maybe that there is a master plan
|
|
oh he who knows, he must be a great man
|
|
|
|
down in leatherwood
|
|
that thought we leave behind
|
|
down in leatherwood
|
|
country love's gonna steal your mind
|
|
and we ain't never gonna be blue, be blue
|
|
be blue,
|
|
be blue,
|
|
be blue
|
