[Verse 1]
G                    
Eva was a fast thing, 
C G
most everybody knew
While other girls were runnin'
A D wild, Eva flew G Her life was the fast lane
C G
but it soon began to show
C G So I begged her with me to go C G To a little home here in Idaho D G with the blackbirds and the crows
[Verse 2] G C One year we were happy and tried
G
to keep our lives on track
G While I was lookin' to the future,
A D
Eva was lookin' back
G She said she missed the old life
C G
and she was truthful I suppose
C G But the truth was she could never leave C G The truth was at nights I'd grieve
D G
if I had to let her go
[Chorus] C Bb - C Blackbirds sat on the fence line C Bb - C Crows flew trhough the sky C I whispered low into Eva's ear A7 D7 Eva your gonna die C She's half mile out, a querter across C7 G C7 Beneath those wheat field rows G And no one knows who put her there A7 D7 G but the blackbirds and crows.
[Verse 3] G Folks come by, we sit around C G And I tell them how she's gone G Tell them how she packed her bags
A7 D7
and wrecked our happy home
G C Oh I tell them she's down in Atlanta,
C7
doing cocaines and God only knows
C G But Eva's not gone, she's here with me C G Right here where she'll always be
A7 D7 G
with the blackbirds and crows
[Chorus] C Bb - C Blackbirds sat on the fence line C Bb - C Crows flew trhough the sky C I whispered low into Eva's ear A7 D7 Eva your gonna die C She's half mile out, a querter across C7 G C7 Beneath those wheat field rows G And no one knows who put her there A7 D7 G but the blackbirds and crows.
