One Mans Shame

Originally recorded with banjo, but sounds good on guitar as well. Pretty simple progression, especially if you go with regular strumming instead of the cool little banjo riff that goes over the Cm. Cm Don't alter my altar, don't desecrate my shrine F Cm My church is the water and my home is underneath the shady pines Cm Don't underestimate the spine in a poor man's back G Cm when it's against the wall and his future's black F Cm One man's story is another man's shame F Cm I ain't bound for glory, I'm bound for flames F Cm Take to the woods boy, and cover up your tracks F G Cm Go away child, go away child and don't look back F G Cm Cm Sad is the lullaby from a mother's heart and soul F Cm when she knows her child has strayed from the fold Cm The parish will perish by death's cruel hand G Cm and finish the job that fate began Cm And all that static in the attic, that's just an old drunk ghost F Cm His chains are rattlin' but his end is close Cm Ain't no hell below, ain't no heaven above G Cm I came for the drinks but I stayed for the love F Cm One man's story is another man's shame F Cm I ain't bound for glory, I'm bound for flames F Cm Take to the woods boy, and cover up your tracks F G Cm Go away child, go away child and don't look back F G Cm Cm Don't alter my altar, don't desecrate my shrine F Cm My church is the water and my home is underneath the shady pines Cm Don't underestimate the spine in a poor man's back G Cm when it's against the wall and his future's black F Cm One man's story is another man's shame F Cm I ain't bound for glory, I'm bound for flames F Cm Take to the woods boy, and cover up your tracks F G Cm Go away child, go away child and don't look back F Cm Take to the woods boy, and cover up your tracks F G Cm Go away child, go away child and don't look back F G Cm Go away child, go away child and don't look back
