LUKAS NELSON & PROMISE OF THE REAL
"Civilized Hell (Acoustic Version)"

[Intro:]
Let's roll and then click, here we go
Roll
A-one, two, three, four

Well she's been runnin' for a mighty long time
Cuttin' fences and snappin' lines
She's growin' on me
I hope that she don't go
She's blowin' on me
I feel my fire grow

[Chorus:]
She's a rebel and I like it
It don't take much to make her yell
And I draw cold water from a wishing well
Hopin' she don't die in a civilized hell
In a civilized hell

I had a good friend tell me not long ago
Said change is rainin' and I'm ready to roll
So I took him down
Through the canyon walls
I told him, "Here we row
When the river calls"

[Chorus:]
He's a rebel and I like it
It don't take much to make him yell
And I draw cold water from a wishing well
Hopin' he don't die in a civilized hell
In a civilized hell

I saw an old man with a twinkle-eyed grin
Settin' fire to a billboard with a song in his head
I heard him cry out loud
Happy he's alive
And the stars will shine
As the fire dies

[Chorus:]
He's a rebel and I like him
It don't take much to make him yell
And I draw cold water from a wishing well
Hopin' he don't die in a civilized hell
In a civilized hell

I ain't leavin' this road I know
I ain't done fightin' for the freedom I chose
Can't put a rope on me
You can't shoot me down
I listen to my heart
And hear the river sound

[Chorus:]
I'm a rebel and I like it
It don't take much to make me yell
And I draw cold water from a wishing well
Hopin' I don't die in a civilized hell
I hope that I don't die in a civilized hell
In a civilized hell

[Outro:]
In a civilized hell
In a civilized hell
Civilized hell
In a civilized hell
In a civilized hell
Civilized hell

[Interlude]

That felt great
Nailed it, awesome (Hahahaha)
Haha
Woo (Wanna come and check it out?)
Yeah (Yeah), I'd love to do another, um (Yeah), steel (I'd like that)
Okay
