Bones Lyrics by Garrison Starr

2018

[Verse 1]
Oh child when you are weary
Weary deep down in your soul
Hear my voice rolling like a river
I won’t ever leave you alone

[Chorus]
Ain’t no chain gonna hold you down
Ain’t no grave gonna hold you now
Yesterday dun came and gone
Ain’t it time to bury them bones

[Chorus]
Ain’t no chain gonna hold you down
Ain’t no grave gonna hold you now
Yesterday dun came and gone
Ain’t it time to bury them bones

[Verse 2]
Oh child when you’re in darkness
Them devils circling around
Don’t you go thinking it’s hopeless
Takes some getting lost to be found

[Chorus]
Ain’t no chain gonna hold you down
Ain’t no grave gonna hold you now
Yestеrday dun came and gone
Ain’t it time to bury thеm bones

[Bridge]
Take me down to the river
Wash me clean in the water
Take me down to the river
Wash me clean in the water
Take me down to the river
Wash me clean in the water
Take me down to the river
Wash me clean in the water
Take me down to the river
Wash me clean in the water
Take me down to the river
Wash me clean in the water

[Chorus]
Ain’t no chain gonna hold you down
Ain’t no grave gonna hold you now
Yesterday dun came and gone
Ain’t it time to bury them bones

[Chorus]
Ain’t no chain gonna hold you down
Ain’t no grave gonna hold you now
Yesterday dun came and gone
Ain’t it time to bury them bones

Chorus]
Ain’t no chain gonna hold you down
(Take me down to the river)
Ain’t no grave gonna hold you now
(Wash me clean in the water)
Yesterday dun came and gone
Ain’t it time to bury them bones

[Chorus]
Ain’t no chain gonna hold you down
(Take me down to the river)
Ain’t no grave gonna hold you now
Yesterday dun came and gone
Ain’t it time to bury them bones

[Outro]
Take me down to the river
Wash me clean in the water
Take me down to the river
Wash me clean in the water
Take me down to the river
Wash me clean in the water
