Intro: These great fields are stretching, Taking me oh so far Great fields are stretching, Savannah stretching oh so far And this dry air is taking My girl and it's oh so hard And i wish i had a melody for a songbird to sing back my love Oh my savannah, Did it have to be so hard? Oh my savannah, Taking all my love and all my heart (After this it's the same chord progression throughout) Tailor won't you make me The finest suit so dark and black and grey And old john won't you lend me The finest gun your eyes have ever laid The fastest bullet flying, So quick nobody ever feel no pain 'Cause the plains they took my baby And i'm gonna take her to the funeral beds to lay And oh my savannah, Did it have to be so hard? Oh my savannah, Taking all my love and all my heart Oh no no ... Oh no no ... Oh no no ... And i'm struggling, and I'm stumbling, And i need to start I'm struggling, and I'm stumbling And I need a friend And i'm struggling, and I'm stumbling, I need you in my heart Oh no no ... Oh no no ... Oh no no ... Tailor won't you make me The finest suit so dark and black and grey And old john won't you lend me The finest gun your eyes have ever laid The fastest bullet flying, So quick nobody ever feel no pain 'Cause the plains they took my baby And i'm gonna take her to the funeral beds to lay Oh no no ... Oh no no ... Oh no no ... Oh no no ... Oh no no ... Oh no no ... And i'm struggling,and I'm stumbling, And i need to start I'm struggling, and I'm stumbling I need you in my heart I hate to say i love you, But oh goddamn i love you, You know i do But you're gone away, gone away, gone away These great fields are stretching, Taking me oh so far
