Biography:
Kyle Craft is a singer-songwriter who grew up in a tiny Louisiana town on the banks of the Mississippi, where he spent most of his time catching alligators and rattlesnakes instead of playing football or picking up the guitar. A self-described transient, Kyle Craft finally settled down in Portland, Oregon in 2015 after a three-year courtship with the Rose City. Touring through town led to frequent visits, couch surfing, and now full-time residency; and by all accounts, he's fully embraced his new home.

[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
E B
Lady of the Ark I think I found a part,
F# E
I think I found a piece of what you used to be.
E B
Dozing in the back of a funeral car
F# E
and tangled in the blankets of your memory.
E B E
So why, why did I waste you?
B A E
If I'd have felt that love come to fall
B F# E
I couldn't save you, plunging to the earth as sweet as cannonball
E B E
Oh why why did I know you?
B A E
How did I know you would go in the end?
B
Fell out of the sky, you told me,
F# E
"Baby I'll be gone but when I'm back again, we'll try"
E B F# E
Try-yy-yy x 3
[Verse 2]
E B
Lady of the ark I think you were the start
F# E
I think you were the key with which his heart was closed.
E B
Not his only secret, not his only weakness,
F# E
I found him at the party feeling through her clothes.
E B E
And he cried, cried, "I'm wasted"
B A E
And he couldn't look you straight in the mouth
B F# E
But all that time he'd taken, even though he didn't watch the words come out
E B E
Oh why why did you leave me?
B A E
Why didn't you think it would rip me apart?
E B F# E
And we were always bleeding, inward toward the spirit when the soul departs the mind
E B F# E
Mi-ii-ii-nd x 3
[Bridge]
E B C#m E C#m E C#m E F# B B7
[Chorus]
E B E
And I could see your face now
B A E
Tripping sick with your ear to the wall
B E Em
You can't find the way down, my lady, my lady
E
'til you fall.
E B F# E

B
[Verse 3]
E B
Well, strange prodigal woman, she can't see it comin',
F# E
Bats her eyes at everybody one by one.
E B
And though she's movin' faster, still he's blowin' past her
F# E
Naked with his eye toward the morning sun.
E B E
But you're wild, wild, I've seen it
B A E
And he left you sick when you loved him the most.
B F# E
So now you're done and defeated, torn between the devil and the holy ghost.
E B E
Swing low, low, sweet heathen,
B A E
Swing for the rich and the rock 'n roll kids
E B
Who roam this Earth repeating
F# E
All this sin until this wicked world makes sense in time.
