A Man Of High Renown
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
G D C G D C
The ghosts are on patrol, At the bottom of the hill
G D C G D C
Where I held you underneath, My burnt and bony knees
Am Em
Older in the doorway,
[Chorus]
C G C G
I was a man of high renown

That sticks to your thighs Cover me in elephant oil, All round the dark said
G D C x2
[Verse 2]

To see your eyes all black, The rash all down your back
G D C G D C

C G C G
I was a man of noble esteem
C G D Em C G
I'll bury you here under the sweet grass, That sticks to your thighs
C G C G Am D G D C x2
Cover me in elephant oil, All round the dark said
