Dm G C F
I've lived upon the edge of chance for twenty years or more
Dm G C C
And this is what my friends all mean
Dm G
By Del Rio's song (Oh, Del Rio)
Dm G
Del Rio's Song (Oh, Del Rio)
Dm G
Del Rio's Song (Oh, Del Rio)
Dm G Bb
Del Rio's Song (Oh, Del Rio)
[Post-Chorus 1]
F C
When time gets slow, and rivers freeze
G G
I think you'd know enough
Dm G C
To call in touch that outer frame
F G
The inner gain, a sullen gulch
Am F G G4 G
Which opens up on the way to Blindman's Bluff
Dm G C
A suburb now of River Roads
F G
Where quandry and sublime improve
Am F
The sight whose imagery
G G
Is sometimes that of fear
Dm G C F
I've lived upon the edge of chance for twenty years or more
Dm G C C
And this is what my friends all mean
Dm G
By Del Rio's song (Oh, Del Rio)
Dm G
Del Rio's Song (Oh, Del Rio)

[Post-Chorus 2]
F C
When time gets slow, and rivers freeze
G G
I think you'd know enough
Dm G C
To shut the gates of walled town walls
F G Am
And putting up some good rum punch
F G G4 G
Forget the way to Blindman's Bluff
Dm G C
So packed with eyes that glow like coals
F G
And pointing towards the North
Am F G G4
Oh, my boat left New Orleans in 1829!

G
My destination is a secret
D5
And the doctrine is soft
G
And just between the verse and me
D5
It's a place where you can see
G
Lost, last and luminous
D5
Scored to sky yet never found relics of jewels
G
And ant-track tools
F
A true ghost danc rehearsal ground
F G x8
ooooh
Am
