Verse one
Way down south where the swamplands grow,
I was messin where nobody goes
Fishin for my dinner in a craw daddy bed
I fell in yah-and I broke my neck
When down from the bottom of the mucky depths,
A girl stood up and stole my breath,
She said aint no need, gotta come with me,
Dont be alarmed cause you got something I need
Im Happy to have met you my name is jess
I think its time we left.
Chorus
Tell my family tell my kin,
I wont be comin home again
The grim reapers name is Jess,
shes been fair and I feel quite blessed. (alright)
Verse 2
Eyes like fire and skin like ice
Sweet water to carry her 'way.
Getting away to a secret hole
To a place where she take my soul
From the land of the living to the land of the dead.
When I heard this no tears were shed
Bridge*: (same chords as chorus)
The worms conspired
The life I had now has expired
Bathed in fire
To live again is my desire
Chorus
Verse 3
Like a candle my flame is out
Certain of this there is no doubt
Just one thing that needs to be known
Will I float like a log or sink like a stone?
