[Intro]
 
E
 
 
[Verse 1]
A6
There's a dead deer in the road up ahead
            E
Must be an omen
A6
From an hour ago or so
                 E
Must have been chosen
A6
And the day moves fast, and the day moves slow
            E
Don't I know it
A6
And I never met a morning that I didn't like
E
And I never met a night that I wouldn't try twice
A6
You should go before the dawn
          E
Cast no shadows
A6                     E
But I'm already gone, mm
 
[Chorus]
          G#m
And grab provisions
  A6                            E
There's nothing for a hundred miles
              G#m
And cast your vision
        A6
On the dark road
        E
For a while
 
[Verse 2]
        A6
Storm is coming now, it sits in a cloud
E
And soon the sky will open up its big mouth
           A6
I feel it in my bones, I feel so alone
E
My heart's the guitar, and my mouth the piano
        A6
I have many teeth in many different keys
E
Honey, if you're good, then don't do it for free
          A6
Do what I have to do, say what I have to say
E
Put a quarter in my jukebox then be on your way
 
[Chorus]
          G#m
And grab provisions
  A6                            E
There's nothing for a hundred miles
              G#m
And cast your vision
       A6
On a memory
          E
For a while
 
[Verse 3]
A6
Puerto Rican bride with tears in her eyes
          E
On her wedding day
A6
Oh, loves a parade, but don't just give it away
  E
Choose carefully
A6
Confetti in my hand, are you ready to be a man?
E
Are you inside the kingdom or just dead where you stand?
A6
And the tin cans drum on the pavement
E
And somebody yells, "Someone save us"
             A6
You were a wishing well, oh, inside of hell
E
And I'd stand over you and I'd laugh as it fell
               A6
Wish you would come again
E
As lovers or friends, I don't care but 'til then
 
[Chorus]
          G#m
And grab provisions
  A6                            E
There's nothing for a hundred miles
              G#m
And cast your vision
       A6
On a melody
        E
For a while
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
A6 E A6 E A6 E A6 E
 
 
 
[Verse 4]
A
Oh, sound off, one, two
     E
Three, four, who's at the door?
    A
And five, six, who is this?
     E
And seven, eight, I'm feeling fine
    A
And sound off, one, two
  E
Three, four, get on the floor
     A
And five, six, pick up sticks
     E
And seven, eight, who's at the gate?
    A
Oh, and sound off, one, two
   E
Three, four, who's at my door
    A
And five, six, who is this?
     E
And seven, eight, mm-mm-mm
 
[Chorus]
      G#m
 grab provisions
  A6                            E
There's nothing for a hundred miles
              G#m
And cast your vision
       A6
On the dark road
        N.C.
For a while
