The .357 String Band - Oh Adeline

      [Verse 1]
Em                               G
I'm feeling so low down and the rain it just won't let up
Em                               G
It's a demon in my head and the devil in my cup
Em                                C
Things keep on moving forward but I keep falling down

[Chorus]
And I said
G  D   Em
Oh Adeline,
C                G    D  Em
You're the only girl for me
      C            Am
So I pour another round
                         C
As the evening sun goes down
                      G
Wherever I'm hanging around, my love,
      D            G
'Till I return to thee

[Verse 2]
Em                                           G
I been putting them spirits down, to try to keep my spirits up
Em                                  G
I got a sweetheart home alone, she puts the fever in my blood
Em                               C
And I gotta keep on moving but tell her I'm coming home

[Chorus]
And I said
G  D   Em
Oh Adeline,
C                G    D  Em
You're the only girl for me
      C             Am
So I raise another glass
                             C
Pray the future forgets the past
                                 G
And that that day might come at last, my love,
     D            G
When I return to thee

[Verse 3]
Em                                       G
Well it's one more honky tonk and it's one more hazy night
Em                                   G
It's one more Maker's Mark and it's one more lonely fight
Em                                 C
It's one more sad song then I'll drive on through the night

[Chorus]
And I said
G  D   Em
Oh Adeline,
C                G    D  Em
You're the only girl for me
       C            Am
So I drink to who I was
                               C
It won't bring me peace, what does?
                      G
Well, not a thing my love, 
      D            G
'Till I return to thee

And I said
G  D  Em
Oh Adeline,
C                G    D  Em
You're the only girl for me
       C            Am
So I drink to who I was
                               C
It won't bring me peace, what does?
                      G
Well, not a thing my love, 
      D            G
'Till I return to thee
