 Rock, Salt, & Nails
 written by Bruce "Utah" Phillips
 as performed by Joe Ely live
 transcribed by Steve Krall (steve.krall@daytonoh.ncr.com)
 Intro:  F
 
 F
 On the banks of the river, 
           Bb           F
 where the willows hang down 
 F            Am   C    Dm
 And the wild birds all warble
        Dm          F 
 with a low moaning sound 
 F    Am C   Dm
 Down in the hollow, 
 Dm                   F
 Where the waters run cold,
        Bb
 It was there I first listened 
                      F
 To the lies that you told 
 
 Now I lay on my bed
 And I see your sweet face.
 The past I remeber,
 Time cannot erase.
 The letter you wrote me, 
 It was written in shame.
 And I know that your conscience
 Still echoes my name. 
 
 
 
 The nights are so long, 
 And sorrow runs deep.
 And nothing is worse
 Than a night with out sleep.
 I'll walk out alone 
 And look at the sky.
 Too empty to sing, 
 Too lonesome to cry. 
 
 If the ladies were blackbirds 
 And the ladies were thrushes,
 I'd lie there for hours
 In the chilly, cold marshes.
 If the ladies were squirrels 
 With a high bushy tail 
 I'd fill up my shotgun 
 With rock salt and nails.
