The Return Of The Grievous Angel 
Gram Parsons 
  
G                   C     G 
Won't you scratch my itch sweet Annie Rich  
G                     D7            G 
And welcome me back to town 
G                              C                                  G 
Come out on your porch or I'll step into your parlour 
               A7               D7 
And I'll tell you how it all went down 
G                       G7                             C 
Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels 
        G          G7                      C 
And a good saloon in every single town 
    C                 D7                                    G 
And I remember something that you once told me 
   C                       D7                 G 
And I'll be damned if it did not come true 
C                        D           G  Bm/F# Em  
Twenty thousand roads I went down, down, down 
   C                 D                             G 
And they all lead me straight back home to you 
              Bm      C         D7                  G  
Cause I headed West to grow up with the country 
Em                    D7                         G 
Across those prairies with those waves of grain 
       Bm               C          D7                      G 
And I saw my devil, and I saw my deep blue sea 
          C              D7                C                 D       G 
And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne toTennesee 
G                            C                         G 
We flew straight across that river bridge 
 D7                 G 
Last night half past two 
G               C                     G                                 A7 
The switchman waved his lantern goodbye and good day as we 
 D7 
Went rolling through 
G                                                             G7                             C 
Billboards and truckstops pass by the grievous angel 
G                            D7                             G 
And now I know just what I have to do 
 Bm                            C           D                   G 
And the man on the radio won't leave me alone 
 Em        D                  G  
He wants to take my money for something I've never been shown 
 Bm                                              C          D                   G 
And I saw my devil, and I saw my deep blue sea 
 C             D            C                                                    D                            G 
And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne to Tennesee 
G                                                    C                        G 
The news I could bring I met up with the king 
 D7                                              G 
On his head an amphetamine crown 
 C                                                           G  
He talked about unbuckling that old bible belt 
 A7                                                      D7  
And headed out for some desert town 
G                                G7                                                                C  
Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels 
 G                                               C 
And a good saloon in every single town 
 C                                        D                                         G 
And I remember something that you once told me 
 C                                     D                                   G 
And I'll be damned if it did not come true 
C                       D                        G      Bm/F#       Em  
Twenty thousand roads I went down down down 
 C                                                    D                          G 
And they all lead me straight back home to you 
C                       D                        G      Bm/F#       Em  
Twenty thousand roads I went down down down 
 C                                                      D                        G 
And they all lead me straight back home to you
