4 & 20 Blues by Jeffrey Foucault


                      4 & 20 Blues


Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo

G
Four and twenty blackbirds sitting on a fence
G
Four and twenty years and I been trying to make some sense
       C
But it don't look too good mama
                        G
Don't look too good for me
      D                          C                     G
I was wading in the water but I only got washed out to sea
 
G
Four and twenty blackbirds flying through the sky
G
Four and twenty years and still I'm barely getting by
       C
But it don't look too good mama
                        G
Don't look too good for me
       D                             C                    G
I was toiling in the fields But the whirlwind is all I did see
 
G
Four and twenty blackbirds crowing up above
G
Four and twenty years and I been in and out of love
       C
But it don't look too good mama
                        G
Don't look too good for me
        D                        C                     G
Well my cup runneth over But it never seems to satisfy me
 
G
It's four and twenty thunder, Four and twenty rain
G
I just walking on the rails, I just keep grinning at the train
        C
But it don't look too good mama
                        G
Don't look too good for me
       D                       C                     G
Oh my cup runneth over But it never seems to satisfy me
 
G
Four and twenty blackbirds crowing on a wire
G
Four and twenty years that I been caught up in desire
       C
But it don't look too good mama
                        G
Don't look too good for me
       D                           C                       G
I got one taste of the apple and I wanted the whole damned tree 
       D                           C                       G
I got one taste of the apple and I wanted the whole damned tree
