Nebraska Bruce Springsteen
This is one of the best written songs I've ever heard. It's on
Springsteen's album Nebraska where he does it in a different key, but
slap a capo on and that's easily changable. He also throws a few gut
wrenching harmonica solos in. Happy pickin'!
Nebraska-Bruce Springsteen
[A]I saw her stan[E]din? on her front la[A]wn
Just twi[E]rlin? her baton[A]
Me and her [D]went for a ride si[A]r
And ten i[E]nnocent people died[A]
With a sawed of .410 on my lap
Through to the badlands of Wyoming
I killed everything in my path
I can?t say that I?m sorry
For the things that we done
At least for a little while sir
Me and her we
Had us some fun
The jury brought in
A guilty verdict and the
Judge he sentenced me to death
Midnight in a prison storeroom with
Leather straps across my chest
Sheriff when the man pulls that switch sir
And snaps my poor head back
You make sure my pretty baby Is sittin? right there
On my lap
They declared me unfit to live
Said into that great void my soul?d be hurled
They wanted to know why I did what I did
Well sir I guess there?s just a meanness in this world
