The Mighty Everglades

| G |

[Verse 1]
G                         A               D
South from Okeechobee and reachin' to the Keys
Bm              A              G
Lays the mighty wonder, nature made
G                                   D    G
A hundred miles of jade, the mighty Ever-glades

[Verse 2]
                              A               D
It's beautiful at sunset, but oh' there's something else
                                G
That makes the bravest heart, a-fraid
                                D
A world of things a-crawlin', a-thumpin' and a-bawlin'
    G             D    G
And wadin' in the Ever-glades

[Verse 3]
G         D
Creepin', seepin'
G                         D7
I hear a million things a-weepin'
     G              C
As I gaze, into the weirdness
   G                D7
Of the mighty, Ever-glades

[Verse 4]
G        D7
Over and over
G                              D
I call, oh please come back my lover
       G                C
But my love is dead, or wandrin'
       G        D     G
In the fearful,  Ever-glades

[Verse 5]
C               G                  D7                G
Voices (voices) callin' (callin'), shadows (shadows) fallin' (fallin')
C                    G                  A               D7
Spirits (spirits) of those (those), who ventured in and stayed
G        D    D7   G                    D
Hear it, fear it,   never, never go too near it
            G              C           G            D     G
For there's myst'ry in the hist'ry, of the mighty,   Ever-glades

[Verse 6]

Seepin', (seepin') crawlin' (crawlin'), spirits (spirits) callin' (callin')
C                  G                   A                 D7
Slidin', (slidin') hidin' (hidin'), my love, in the Ever-glades
G               D     D7     G                             D    D7
Over (over) and over (over), I call but now she's gone for ever
       G                 C                 G            D     G
And my heart is wandrin' with her, through the mighty,   Ever-glades

[Outro]
                                D
A world of things a-crawlin', a-thumpin' and a-bawlin'
    G             D    G
And wadin' in the Ever-glades
