lyrics

New Confederate Blues Words Fred Grittner/Music Jan Hauenstein

(Am) (A2) (Am) (Fj7) (G) (G/B) (Am)
Midnight (A2)on the (Am)ocean,
(Dm) Midnight (D2)on the (Dm)sea,
An (Am)open boat,
A (Am/C)tattered coat,
I (Fj7)watch her anxious(Fadd9)ly.
The (Am)lighthouse (A2)beacon (Am)shows me
(Dm) What I (D2)stand to (Dm)lose.
(Am) I wish we could have (Am/C)straightened out
These (Fj7)new confederate, (Fadd9)
(E)New con(E7/B)federate (Am)blues.(A2) (Am) (Fj7) (G) (G/B)
(Am) (A2) (Am) (Fj7) (Bbj7/F) (E) (E7/B) (Am)

A night to (A2)be re(Am)membered,
(Dm) A night to (D2)be en(Dm)dured.
(Am) Gone away,
She (Am/C)would not say,
She (Fj7)took back every (Fadd9)word.
(Am) Waves (A2)breaking (Am)at my feet
(Dm)Wash a(D2)way the (Dm)clues.
The (Am)tide has turned a(Am/C)gainst me and
These (Fj7)new confederate, (Fadd9)
(E)New con(E7/B)federate (Am)blues.(A2) (Am) (Fj7) (G) (G/B)
(Am) (A2) (Am) (Fj7) (Bbj7/F) (E) (E7/B) (Am)

A cold night (A2)on the (Am)ocean,
(Dm) The wind is (D2)outward (Dm)bound.
The (Am)open boat
Is (Am/C)still afloat,
I’m (Fj7)sinking in the (Fadd9)ground.
The (Am)shadows (A2)go down (Am)with me,
(Dm)Anchored (D2)to my (Dm)shoes.
(Am) No way of es(Am/C)caping from
These (Fj7) new confederate, (Fadd9)
(E)New con(E7/B)federate (Am)blues.(A2) (Am) (Fj7) (G) (G/B)
(Am) (A2) (Am) (Fj7) (Bbj7/F) (E) (E7/B) (Am)

Jan Hauenstein Göttingen, Germany

More than background music.
You'll hear folk, blues, jazzy songs, rock. Big voice. Albums recommended by Gordon Bok, Harvey Andrews, Jez Lowe and others.

Why no free uploads? I cover songs. Register them with the German music rights agency GEMA. They hopefully reimburse the artists. The tax authorities demand that I make (not lose) a little money each year... ... more
