A Campfire Song 10,000 Maniacs
INTRO: [G] [D/F#] [Em] [D] [C] ... [D] [G]
[G]A lie to say "[D]Oh, my mountain has [Em]coal veins and beds to [C]dig
[G] Five hundred [D]men with axes and [C]they all dig for [D]me"
(same chords)
A lie to say "Oh, my river where many fish do swim
Half of your catch is mine when you haul your nets in"
CHORUS:
Oh no, [C]never will he be[G]lieve that his [C]greed is a [G]blinding [D]ray
No [C]devil or re[G]deemer will [C]cheat him
He'll take his [G]gold to where he's [Em]lying [D]cold (First ending: [C] [D] [G])
A lie to say "Oh, my mine gave a diamond big as a fist"
But for every gem in his pocket, the jewels he has missed
A lie to say "Oh, my garden is growing taller by the day"
He only eats the best and tosses the rest away
CHORUS: end with
[C] Six [D]deep in the [G]grave
SOLO: [Dsus4] [D] [Cmaj9] [Dsus4]
BRIDGE:
His [C]oldest pain and [Gmaj9]fear in [G/B]life [C] There'll [D]not be time
(Something is out of reach, something he wanted)
His [C]oldest pain and [Gmaj9]fear in [G/B]life [C] There'll [D]not be time
(Something is out of reach, he's being taunted)
Oh [C]no, [Gmaj9] [G/B] hey [C]hey,[G] [C]
(Something is out of reach, that he can't beg or steal)
[D]Nor can he [G]buy
A lie to say "Oh, my forest has trees that block the sun
And when I cut them down I don't answer to anyone"
CHORUS, then repeat chorus chords with "La la la..."
ENDING: [Em]Lonely, [D]lonely, [C]lonely, [D]lonely [G]man
