Flushed from the Bathroom of Your Heart — Johnny Cash
from "Johhny Cash at Folsom Prison and San Quentin"
CAPO 2 (or play G C D G..., but that's not the way it was played)
F Bb
From the backdoor of your life you swept me out, dear.
C F
In the breadline of your dreams I lost my place.
F Bb
At the table of your love I got the brush off.
C F
At the Indianapolis of your heart I lost the race.
Chorus:
Bb F
I’ve been washed down the sink of you conscience.
C
In the theater of your love I lost my part.
F Bb
And now you say you’ve got me out of your conscience.
C F
I've been flushed from the bathroom of your heart.
F Bb
In the garbage disposal of your dreams I’ve been ground up dear.
C F
On the river of your plans I’m up the creek.
F Bb
Up the elevator of your future I've been shafted,
C F
On you calendar of events I'm last week.
Repeat Chorus
(tabbed by Arthur Marks)
