[Riff A]

   B     E        F#     B
My daddy told me, lookin back,
E                                F#
The best friend you'll have is a railroad track
        B      E          F#             B
So when I was 13, I said, I'm rollin' my own
    E                            F#           B
And I'm leavin' Missouri and I'm never comin' home

        B
And I'm lost
        E
And I'm lost
    B                         G#m
I'm lost at the bottom of the world
    B                                E
I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
B           F#                B
I'm lost at the bottom of the world.

B       E           F#       B
Satchel Puddin' and Lord God Mose
E                          F#
Sitting by the fire with a busted nose
     B         E         F#       B
That fresh egg yeller is too damn rare
        E                         F#                 B
But the white part is perfect for slickin' down your hair


        B
And I'm lost
        E
And I'm lost
    B                         G#m
I'm lost at the bottom of the world
    B                                E
I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
B           F#                B
I'm lost at the bottom of the world.


B         E        F#     B
Blackjack Ruby and Nimrod Cain
    E                     F#
The moon's the color of a coffee stain
B     E         F#        B
jesse Frank and Birdy Joe Hoaks
E                      F#
But who is the king of all these folks?


        B
And I'm lost
        E
And I'm lost
    B                         G#m
I'm lost at the bottom of the world
    B                                E
I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
B           F#                B
I'm lost at the bottom of the world.

       B          E          F#       B
Well I dined last night with Scarface Ron
   E                      F#
On Telapia fish cakes and fried black swan
B         E         F#      B
Razorweed onion and peacock squirrel
      E                       F#
And I dreamed all night about a beautiful girl

     B           E             F#      B
Well God's green hair is where I slept last
   E                       F#
He balanced a diamond on a blade of grass
    B      E            F#       B
Now I woke me up with a cardinal bird
         E
And when I wanna talk
   F#
He hangs on every word
