D D G G D D D7 D7
Fat man lookin' in a blade of steel, thin man lookin' at his last meal
G G D D G G D D
Hollow man lookin' in a cotton field for dignity
D D G G D D D7 D7
Wise man lookin' in a blade of grass, young man lookin' in the shadows that pass
G G D D G G D D
Poor man lookin' through painted glass for dignity


A A
Somebody got murdered on New Year's Eve
G G D D
Somebody said dignity was the first to leave
G G F#m F#m
I went into the city, went into the town
Em Em A A A A(2)
Went into the land of the midnight sun

D D G G D D D7 D7
Searchin' high, searchin' low, searchin' everywhere I know
G G D D G G D D
Askin' the cops wherever I go, "Have you seen Dignity?"

D D G G D D D7 D7
Blind man breakin' out of a trance, puts both his hands in the pocket of chance
D D G G D D
Hopin' to find one circumstance of dignity

D D G G D D D7 D7
I went to the wedding of Mary-Lou, she said I don't want nobody see me talkin to you
G G D D G G D D
Said she could get killed if she told me what she knew about dignity


A A
I went down where the vultures feed
G G D D
I would've gone deeper, but there wasn't any need
G G F#m F#m
Heard the tongues of angels and the tongues of men,
Em Em A A A A(2)
Wasn't any difference to me

D D G G D D D7 D7
Chilly wind sharp as a razor blade, house on fire, debts unpaid
G G D D G G D D
Gonna stand at the window, gonna ask the maid, "Have you seen dignity?"

D D G G D D
D7 D7
Drinkin' man listens to the voice he hears in a crowded room full of covered up
mirrors
G G D D G G D D
Lookin' into the lost forgotten years for dignity

D D G G D D
D7 D7
Met Prince Philip at the home of the blues said he'd give me information if his name
wasn't used
G G D D G G D D
He wanted money up front, said he was abused by dignity


A A
Footprints runnin' cross the silver sand,
G G D D
Steps goin' down into tattoo land
G G F#m F#m
I met the sons of darkness and the sons of light,
Em Em A A A A(2)
In the bordertowns of despair

D D G G D D D7 D7
Got no place to fade, got no coat, I'm on the rollin' river in a jerkin' boat
G G D D G G D D
Tryin' to read a note somebody wrote about dignity

D D G G D D D7 D7
Sick man lookin' for the doctor's cure, lookin' at his hands for the lines that were
G G D D G G D D
And into every masterpiece of literature for dignity

D D G G D D D7 D7
Englishman stranded in the blackheart wind combin' his hair back his future looks
thin
G G D D G G D D
Bites the bullet and he looks within for dignity


A A
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed,
G G D D
dignity never been photographed
G G F#m F#m
I went into the red, went into the black,
Em Em A A A A(2)
Into the valley of dry bone dreams
D D G G D D D7 D7
So many roads, so much at stake, so many dead ends, I'm at the edge of the lake
G G D D G G D D
Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take to find dignity
