D                  G        D
Ride the blue wind high and free
                             G    D
she'll lead you down through misery
                    G       D
leave you low, come time to go
          G G4 G         D
alone and low as low can be


                      G      D
If I had a nickel I'd find a game
                      G       D
If I won a dollar I'd make it rain
                          G        D
If it rained an ocean I'd drink it dry
           G G4 G        D
and lay me down dissatisfied


[D4 D D4... just do sthg, with some G too]
E                A           E
Legs to walk and thoughts to fly
                  A       E
eyes to laugh and lips to cry
                     A     E
a restless tongue to classify
            A A4 A            E
all born to grow and grown to die
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/townes_van_zandt/rexs_blues_crd.html ]
[E4 E E4, 'gain... ]
E                 A       E
So tell my baby I said so long
                 A      E
tell my mother I did no wrong
                   A         E
tell my brother to watch his own
            A      A4 A         E
and tell my friends to mourn me none

[G G4 G...]
G                    C       G
I'm chained upon the face of time
                C       G
feelin' full of foolish rhyme
                         C         G
there ain't no dark till something shines
             C4   C            G
I'm bound to leave this dark behind

E                  A        E
Ride the blue wind high and free
E                            A   E
she'll lead you down through misery
                    A       E
leave you low, come time to go
          A A4 A         E
alone and low as low can be

one of the truest songs on earth, thank you tvz.
