Oregon Hill (M. Timmins/Cowboy Junkies)
(from the album Black Eyed Man)
Corrections/improvements welcome.
(I'm playing this song with a E- E6 -E7 riff through most of the verses. That is, an E, then an E with
pinkie added on 2nd fret of 2nd string, then sliding my pinkie up to the 3rd fret. Of course, there may be
better way.)
E- E6 -E7 riffThe hoods are up on Pine Street, rearends lifted, too
The great-grandsons of General Robert E. Lee
F#mare makin' love with a little help from STP
A E- E6 -E7Their women on the porches, comparin' alibis
(E- E6 -E7 riff)Greasy eggs & bacon, bumper stickers aimed to start a fight
Folk in wrecks, confederate caps, if you want some shine well
F#m F#m7 you can always find some more
A E- E6 -E7but what I remember most, is the color of Susie's door
C#m G# A EAnd Susie says she's up there, cutting carrots still
E B AmSusie says she's missing me
F#m E- E6 -E7so I'm missing, Oregon Hill
(E- E6 -E7 riff)A river to the south, to wash away all sin
A college to the east of us, to learn where sin begins
F#m F#m7A graveyard to the west of it all
A E- E6 -E7The child may soon be lying in it
A ECause to the north there is a prison,
A Ewhich I've come to call my home
A Ebut come Monday morning, no country song,
B A Ewill sing me home again
C#m G# A ESusie says she's up there, cutting carrots still
E B Am F#m E- E6 -E7Susie says she's missing me, so I'm missing, Oregon Hill
(E- E6 -E7 riff)Sunday morning, 8 a.m., sirens fill the air
Sounds like someone made the river
F#m F#m7Sounds like someone being born again
A G#m F#m E- E6 -E7But me, I'm just lyin' here in Susie's bed
A EBaptists celebrating with praises to the lord
A ERednecks doin' it with gin
A E B A EMe and Susie, we're just celebrating, the joys of sleepin' in,
F#m A E- E6 -E7because tomorrow, I'll be home again.
C#m G#Susie says she'll wait there,
A Ecutting carrots by the window sill
