[Verse 1]
A
The devil's in the detail shop
Waiting on his old rag top

Wondering where the hell have all the 
G          D
real souls gone
G            D              A
It's been so long since the reaping's 
worth a damn

A
Little Mary's living hand to mouth
Can't believe how fast it all went south

Taking pains to conceive of an 
G          D
immaculate life
   G     D                   A
But Jesus Christ it sure gets hard 
sometimes

[Chorus]
E                      D              
And the bright Morning Star just left

He's headed down to Asheville Carolina 
A
via Ohio
E
They got a rich four-season climate
D
And ridge of mountains blue
        E                              
And he's going to spend his golden years

[Verse 2]
A
Ever since Joseph passed away
The lady hasn't had too much to say
You can find her kneeling in the garden
    G        D
All skin and bones
         G          D
And when seeds have grown
             A
She'll plant again
A
Last time the market fell
Satan had to sell off half of hell
                                G      
Now it's all suburban sprawl and big box
D
stores
       G        D                  A
Well he can't be sure but this might be 
the end

[Chorus]
E                      D

He's got a stack of classic vinyl
D
And a turn-table to boot
E                                       
And he's going to spend his golden years

And he'll sing
                    D A
I shall be released
A                                    
And I've got a woman over town who's 
          D A
good to me
F           A
Walking the floor

A                                     D 
And do-do-do looking out my back door
A

Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in a 
church where a wedding's been
A                                     
Not going to hear that train a'coming 
             D A
