The radio is busted, down around my place

Every tool is rusted, down around my place

Creeks and rivers dried up, down around my place

My woman's tears are cried up, down around my place
G D
And before there came a flood
Am Em
Some lost all, even blood
G D
Now the sun and wind have come
Am
and left no trace

Down around my place

These hunting grounds were hallowed, down around my place

Exhausted fields lay fallow, down around my place

Kingdoms come and crumble, down around my place

My prayers are merely mumbles, down around my place

And I put my faith in you

They said you wouldn't believe

What a paradise this was

'Til every Adam and Eve, Tom, Dick and Harry
Am Em
Started fighting for what he loved
C/G
So, we fortified the ramparts

And we built the mighty towers

But it was plain to see, we never were free

From the tyranny of the hour

The family graves keep winkin', down around my place

At every thought I'm thinkin', down around my place

While the young ones crowd the table, down around my place
Em D Em
Bitchin' about no cable, down around my place

It's always the last one in who's in a hurry
G D Am
To try and slam the door in the next one's face”

Down around my place

Down around my place
