Maria's Bed - Bruce Springsteen
DRAFT
(can be played w/capo on 3rd fret with A, D, E...maybe better for the intro..)
Intro : C / F
C F
Been on a barbed wire highway 40 days and nights
C F
I ain't complainin' that's my job and it suits me right
C F
I got a sweet soul fever rushin' around my head
C F
I'm gonna sleep tonight in Maria's bed
Got on a dead man suit and smilin' skull ring
Lucky graveyard boots and a song to sing
I keep my heart in my work my troubles in my head
And I keep my soul in Maria's bed
C F
Hey Hey Hey Hey
I been up on sugar mountain, cross the sweet blue sea
I walked the valley of love and tears and mystery
I got run out'a luck and give myself up for dead
Then I drank the cool clear waters from Maria's bed
C F C F
Hey Hey Hey Hey
Am F
She give me candy stick kisses ‘neath a wolf dog moon
C F
One sweet breath and and She'll take you mister to the upper room
Am F
I was burned by the angels, sold wings of lead
C G
Then I fell in the roses and sweet salvation of Maria's bed
I been out in the desert doin' my time
Searchin' through the dust for fools gold, lookin' for a sign
Holy man said hold on brother there's a light up ahead
Ain't nothing like the light that shines on me in Maria's bed
C F
Well I take my blessings at the riverhead
C G C
I'm living in the light of Maria's bed
