This song is originally in Eb. I made it more guitar friendly by capoing the 1st
fret. I took all the hard work btkircher did and made the chords correct.
Dustbowl Dance – Mumford & Sons
[Verse]
Bm G A D
The young man stands on the edge of his porch
Em Bm Em F#m
The days were short and the father was gone
Bm G A D
There was no one in the town and no one in the field
Em Bm Em F#m
This dusty barren land had given all it could yield
Bm G A D
I've been kicked off my land at the age of sixteen
Em Bm E F#m
And I have no idea where else my heart could have been
Bm G A D
I placed all my trust at the foot of this hill
Em Bm E F#m
And now I am sure my heart can never be still
Bm G A D
So collect your courage and collect your horse
Em Bm Em F#m
And pray you never feel this same kind of remorse
[Chorus 1]
Bm G A D
Seal my heart and brake my pride
Em Bm E F#m
I've nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide
Bm G A D
Align my heart, my body, my mind
Em Bm Em F#m
To face what I've done and do my time
[Verse]
Bm G A D
Well you are my accuser, now look in my face
Em Bm Em F#m
Your opression reeks of your greed and disgrace
Bm G A D
So one man has and another has not
Em Bm Em F#m
How can you love what it is you have got
Bm G A D
When you took it all from the weak hands of the poor?
Em Bm Em F#m
Liars and thieves you know not what is in store
Bm G A D
There will come a time I will look in your eye
Em Bm Em F#m
You will pray to the God that you always denied
Bm G A D
The I'll go out back and I'll get my gun
Em Bm Em F#m
I'll say, "You haven't met me, I am the only son"
[Chorus]
Bm G A D
Seal my heart and brake my pride
Em Bm Em F#m
I've nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide
Bm G A D
Align my heart, my body, my mind
Em Bm Em F#m
To face what I've done and do my time
Bm G A D
Seal my heart and brake my pride
Em Bm Em F#m
I've nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide
Bm G A D
Align my heart, my body, my mind
Em Bm Em F#m
To face what I've done and do my time
