Rake by Townes Van Zandt as played by Steve Earle Intro and Verse 1 : Lyrics: I used to wake and run with the moon I lived like a rake and a young man I covered my lovers with flowers and wounds my laughter the devil would frighten The sun she would come and beat me back down but every cruel day had its nightfall I'd welcome the stars with wine and guitars full of fire and forgetful My body was sharp the dark air clean and outrage my joyful companion whisperin' women how sweet they did (guitaretab.com)
