Title: The 33rd Of August
Album: It Ain't Me Babe
G
Lord, today there's no salvation,
C
The band's packed up and gone
D G
Left me standing with my pennies in my hand
There's a big crowd at the station
C
Where the blind man sings his song
D G
But he can see what they can't understand.
C
It's the thirty-third of August
G
And I'm finally touching down
C am
Eight days from Sunday finds me
D G
Saturday bound.
G
Once I stumbled through the darkness,
C
Tumbled to my knees
D G
A thousand voices screaming in my brain
I woke up in a squad car,
C
Busted down for vagrancy
D G
Outside my cell as sure as hell, it looked like rain.
C
It's the thirty-third of August
G
And I'm finally touching down
C am
Eight days from Sunday finds me
D G
Saturday bound.
G
Now I've got my dangerous feelings
C
Under lock and chain
D G
Killed my violent nature with a smile
Though the demons danced and sang their songs
C
Within my fevered brain
D G
Not all my God-like thoughts, Lord, were defiled
C
It's the thirty-third of August
G
And I'm finally touching down
C am
Eight days from Sunday finds me
D G
Saturday bound.
