Melanie Safka - A Song For Robert Johnson
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: Am Em D C Am Em D C Am
Up on north to Detroit
Em D
South down Fifty-one to Memphis
C Am
A pistol in his hand
Em
There's many a good man hidin' in the shadows
D C Am
Just waitin' to give that boy six feet of land
'Little Robert Dusty'
Em D
He's been stealin' hearts so easily
C Am
You should hear him when he sings
Em
Double dealing at the crossroads
D
Him and his guitar, they say
C D Em
Something's been playin' them
CHORUS:
A D Em
Feeling, down in the fingertips
Bold good feeling, woah, oh
A G
Like you could die for it
D C
And the bird that whistles
G D
And the bird that sings
G C
And the strong, strong heart beatin'
G D Am
And the stretched out wings
Em
"Passion be a memory", she says
D C Am
Lookin' at the sheets where he used to lie with her
Em
Holdin' a picture, she's livin' again
D C Am
Things she felt when he played for her
