NICKAJACK CAVE (Johnny Cash's Redemption) Jamie O'Hara KEY: E INTRO: E VERSE: E Little white pills and whiskey E Honky tonks and smoke E One night stands with his country band E Had him strung out on the ropes E A Well he cried out to Jesus A E He said Jesus I think I'm too lost to save E B7 A E He already had on foot inside his grave E B7 A E As he stepped into the mouth of Nickajack Cave VERSE: Everything was darkness Wasn't no light at all Just the cold dank air and the pitch black dirt And he spiders on the walls Well he laid down beneath a ledge And curled up there to meet his judgement day The shivering came upon him wave by wave Well he could feel the breath of death in Nickajack Cave REFRAIN: A Then high above him shone a light A He never would forget A B7 Then he heard a voice say Johnny Cash B7 I ain't thru with you yet B7 E Get up I ain't thru with you yet E I ain't thru with you yet Johnny Cash E Get up VERSE: Then he crawled out from beneath that ledge And felt a gentle breeze Tears and dirt smeared on his face As peaceful as could be Well he knelt down upon the ground Raised his eyes up to the light and prayed He said Lord I'll be your servant from this day That's how he became the Man In Black in Nickajack Cave That's how he became the Man In Black in Nickajack Cave E Get up Johnny Cash I ain't thru with you yet E Get up OUTRO: E *An alternate chord progression you could use when an E chord is played is: E G A E.
