More chords by Billy Joe Shaver


Em Am

Jesse lit us up and passed the bottle one more time

Em

We used to smoke and drink a lot back then

Am

Thunder shook the heavens and the lightning danced the sky

Em

Like i ain't seen since can't remember when

Em Am

The Oklahoma kid laid dying in a women's wing

Em

Just another indian biting dust

Am

Clouds grew dark in promise but they didn't rain a thing

Em

The government ain't something you can trust

G A D G

Oh the Oklahoma wind slides across the burning sand

G/ A/ Em

Over double crosses mother nature made

Em Am

We picked a gig in Tulsa at the Cains ballroom that night

Em

The Oklahoma kid was dead and gone

Am

Rains still hadn't come but the clouds still blacked the sky

Em

That's when i took the time to write this song about the wrong

G A D G

Oh the Oklahoma wind slides across the burning sand

A Em

Over double crosses mother nature made

G A D G

And nothing's ever come as far as i'm concerned

A Em

From those dead tomorrows planted yesterday

Em Am

The white man took a chance and got his foot hung in the door

Em

He sure as hell is gonna have his day
