Letter To Madeline chords

[INTRO]
[G]

[VERSE 1]
Looked like a hundred [Em]guns held on[D] me
Hunkered by the s[Am]hed of Detroit Gen[C]eral & Com[Em]pany
Calling, boy co[D]me out, we have you ja[C]iled
Beside the buck-shot do[Em]or, I stood st[D]ill
Wondering how the h[Am]ell the bastards fo[C]und me in those [Em]hills
And clinging to a le[D]tter that I wish I'd ma[C]iled

[CHORUS]
Go rest e[Em]asy, Madel[D]ine
I'm brin[Dm]ging down the ba[Am]nk across this flo[C]oded county l[Em]ine
And when I get h[D]ome, we'll have a grand old t[C]ime
But don't you shed no te[Em]ars or be surpr[D]ised
If you get the w[Am]ord that y[G]our wild[C] man has up and d[Em]ied
Just set me up a st[D]one on that high hil[C]lside

[INTERLUDE]

[VERSE 2]
Now in the pouring s[Em]now, sad, but swi[D]ft
I headed down the hi[Am]ghway
Hoping that the bur[C]den of my blues would [Em]lift
And praying that the wh[D]iskey would keep me b[C]rave
Oh, but I got c[Em]aught in the co[D]ld
Looking like a h[Am]obo without n[G]o m[C]ercy from the [Em]road
And feeling like a de[D]ad man without a gr[C]ave

[CHORUS]
Go rest e[Em]asy, Ma[D]deline
I'm brin[Dm]ging down the b[Am]ank across this fl[C]ooded county [Em]line
And when I get h[D]ome, we'll have a grand old t[C]ime
But don't you shed no t[Em]ears or be surp[D]rised
If you get the wo[Am]rd that yo[G]ur wild[C] man has up and d[Em]ied
Just set me up a st[D]one on that high hil[C]lside

[C]Oh my, oh m[Em]y

[INTERLUDE]
[Em] [D] [Am] [C]
[Em] [D] [C]

[VERSE 3]
Bloodied-up and c[Em]hained, my legs pinned d[D]own
I woke to find my f[Am]ate in the hands of four m[C]en gathered '[Em]round
And cursing for the [D]bag they knew I'd [C]hid
And the more they stomped and [Em]moaned, the more I p[D]rayed
Feeling every s[Am]park flying off of that f[C]ile and their rusted b[Em]lade
Said, better think it [D]through, this is your last chance, [C]kid

[CHORUS]
Go rest e[Em]asy, Ma[D]deline
I'm brin[Dm]ging down the b[Am]ank across this fl[C]ooded county [Em]line
And when I get h[D]ome, we'll have a grand old t[C]ime
But don't you shed no t[Em]ears or be surp[D]rised
If you get the wo[Am]rd that yo[G]ur wild[C] man has up and d[Em]ied
Just set me up a st[D]one on that high hil[C]lside
