[Verse]
G7             D            G7           D
A long, long time ago in a little Texas town
C                        D
Eve made her way to the field below
    C           D                 C
To have a look around, girls, to have a look
D
around
 
G7             D           G7           D
Down, down she did go, further in the fields
          C                      D
When she heard a voice singing sweet and low
C                 D            C
Dig in with your heels, girl, dig in with
      D
your heels
 
G7           D                  G7
Eyes wide, heart inside like a gavel comin'
D
down
     C                        D
All around her brain was the sweet refrain
C                   D
Keep following the sound, girl, keep
 C            D
following the sound
 
 
[Chorus]
G              C              D
They'll try to take you for a ride
         G             C               D
They'll muddy all the good you've got inside
Em                         A7
They'll twist your heart until it's black and
D
blue
 
[Verse]
          C                 D
But don't let 'em keep you down, girl
       C                D
Don't let 'em keep you down
 
G7           D                   G7
Miles, miles Eve did go, when at last she
     D
came upon
           C                    D
The source of the sound in the watery ground
          C                   D          C
And the night was coming on, girls, the night
           D
was coming on
 
 
  G7                       D
Through the wilderness and the cypress trees
          G7             D
And the night birds all around
     C                   D
She made her way to the river's edge
         C                D
And her mother there she found, girls, her
C                 D
mother there she found
 
 
 
G7           D                  G7
Eyes wide, heart inside like a gavel comin'
D
down
          C                     D
When her mother said, come and rest your head
      C                  D
I'll tell you what I've found, girl, I'll
C                   D
tell you what I've found
 
[Chorus]
G               C              D
They'll try to take you for a ride
G                      C               D
They'll muddy all the good you've got inside
Em                        A7
They'll twist your heart until it's black and
D
blue
           C                D
But don't let 'em keep you down girl
       C                D
Don't let 'em keep you down
