Day Of The Locusts
Composição de (Bob Dylan)
G                         C         C/B    Am 
Oh, the benches were stained with tears and perspiration 
    G                         C   C/B     Am 
The birdies were flying from tree to tree 
          G                         C  C/B    Am 
There was little to say, there was no conversation 
     G                            C   C/B    Am 
As I stepped to the stage to pick up my degree 

        G             C   C/B    Am 
And the locusts sang off in the distance 
          G                   C    C/B     Am 
Yeah, the locusts sang such a sweet melody 
        G             C    C/B    Am 
Oh, the locusts sang off in the distance 
           G                         C   C/B Am  G 
Yeah, the locusts sang and they were singing for me 

 G                         C         C/B    Am 
I glanced into the chamber where the judges were talking 
  G                         C         C/B    Am 
Darkness was everywhere, it smelled like a tomb 
 G                         C         C/B    Am 
I was ready to leave, I was already walking 
  G                         C         C/B    Am 
But the next time I looked there was light in the room 

 G                         C         C/B    Am 
And the locusts sang, yeah, it give me a chill 

G                         C         C/B  Am 
Oh, the locusts sang such a sweet melody 
 G                         C         C/B   Am 
Oh, the locusts sang their high whining trill 
G                         C         C/B    Am 
Yeah, the locusts sang and they were singing for me 

 G                         C         C/B    Am 
Outside of the gates the trucks were unloading 
  G                         C         C/B  Am 
The weather was hot, a-nearly 90 degrees 
  G                         C         C/B    Am 
The man standing next to me, his head was exploding 
  G                         C         C/B    Am 
Well, I was praying the pieces wouldn’t fall on me 

  G                         C         C/B  Am 
Yeah, the locusts sang off in the distance 
 G                         C         C/B   Am 
Yeah, the locusts sang such a sweet melody 
  G                         C         C/B  Am 
Oh, the locusts sang off in the distance 
 G                         C         C/B    Am 
And the locusts sang and they were singing for me 

  G                 C      C/B    Am 
I put down my robe, picked up my diploma 
  G                            C    C/B    Am 
Took hold of my sweetheart and away we did drive 
  G                         C     C/B      Am 
Straight for the hills, the black hills of Dakota 
   G                         C          C/B   Am 
Sure was glad to get out of there alive 

  G                         C         C/B    Am 
And the locusts sang, well, it give me a chill 
  G                         C         C/B  Am 
Yeah, the locusts sang such a sweet melody 
  G                         C         C/B    Am 
And the locusts sang with a high whining trill 
 G                         C         C/B    Am 
Yeah, the locusts sang and they was singing for me 

 G                         C         C/B  Am 
Singing for me, well, singing for me
