she found his luck in wells and corner stores and jails
she was crazy
a downtown kind of baby
always dangerous, she got me down on my knees
she made it rain
she called the wind and then it came
oh with the wave of his hand
she brought the sunshine right in
she was the sky
beyond steeple and the choir
oh, the preacher's amen
his hallelujah child

and the fog's so thick you can't see up close
     F                C                G
just know that i will end up strangled too
             F                    G

she sang the blues
       Em           
out of time and out of tune
         Am
spoke no silver spoon
     F
only simple truths
she was a friend, stabbed backs and broke plans
she would give you her coat
or put nails through her hand

she was wise, full of magic and life
oh you could see it in his eyes
oh yeah i saw it in his eyes
she was more than this
oh way more than this
she was everything
she was all of this

G, Dm
