Am            C                   G            Em
Crickets are chirpin' the water is high
                 Am            C                G              Am
There's a soft cotton dress on the line hangin' dry
Am             C       G           Em
Window's wide open African trees
Am               C                     G             Am
Bent over backwards in a hurricane breeze
G
Not a word, a goodbye, not even a note
          Am                  C             G                  Am
She's gone with the man in the long black coat

Am              C           G              Em
Somebody seem him hangin' around
             Am            C               G           Am
At the old dance hall on the outskirts of town
              Am             C                  G                      Em
He looked into her eyes when she stopped him to ask
           Am             C                  G       Am
If he wanted to dance he had a face like a mask
G
Somebody said, from the Bible he quote
                 Am              C               G                    Am
There was dust on the man in the long black coat

Am                 C                    G                 Em
Preacher was talkin' there's a sermon he gave
               Am          C                    G           Am
He said every man's conscience is vile and depraved
Am                  C            G        Em
You cannot depend on it to be your guide
                Am           C                G     Am
When it's you who must keep it satisfied
G
It ain't easy to swallow, it sticks in the throat
                    Am           C                 G         Am
She give her heart to the man in the long black coat

One, two
F                                     C
There are no mistakes in life some people say
Am                               G                 Am
It's true sometimes you can see it that way
F                                     C
People don't live or die, people just float
                    Am              C                  G          Am
She give her heart to the man in the long black coat

            Am                 C              G                       Em
There's smoke on the water, it's been there since June
Am                  C                  G                          Am
Tree trunks uprooted in the high crescent moon
                Am               C               G          Em
Hear the pulse and vibrations and the rumblin' force
Am              C              G                  Am
Somebody's out there beating on a dead horse
G
She never said nothin', there was nothin' she wrote
             Am                C              G               Am
She's gone with the man in the long black coat
                Am                C            G            Am
She's gone with the man in the long black coat
