Biography:
Gillian Howard Welch (born October 2, 1967) is an American singer-songwriter. She performs with her musical partner, guitarist David Rawlings. Their sparse and dark musical style, which combines elements of Appalachian music, bluegrass, country and Americana, is described by The New Yorker as "at once innovative and obliquely reminiscent of past rural forms."
Welch and Rawlings have collaborated on seven critically acclaimed albums, five released under her name, and two released under the name Dave Rawlings Machine.

[G]All the girls all dance with the boys from the city,
And they don't care to dance with [D]me.
Now it [G]ain't my fault that the fields are muddy,
And the red clay [D]stains my [D]feet.
And it's [G]under my nails and it's under my collar,
And it shows on my Sunday [D]clothes.
Though I [G]do my best with the soap and the water,
But the darned old [D]dirt won't [G]go.
{soc}
But [C]when I pass through the [G]pearly gate,
Will my [D]gown be gold in[G]stead?
Or just a [C]red clay robe with [G]red clay wings,
And a [D]red clay halo for my [G]head
{eoc}
{c:Preverse}
[G][/] [G] [/] [G] [/] [G] [/]
Now it's [G]mud in the spring and it's dust in the summer,
When it blows in a crimson [D]tide.
Until [G]trees and leaves and the cows are the colour,
Of the dirt on the [D]mountain[G]side.
{soc}
But [C]when I pass through the [G]pearly gate,
Will my [D]gown be gold in[G]stead?
Or just a [C]red clay robe with [G]red clay wings,

Now [G]Jordan's banks they're red and muddy,
And the rolling water is [D]wide.
But I [G]got no boat, so I'll be good and muddy,
When I get to the [D]other [G]side.

But [C]when I pass through the [G]pearly gate,
Will my [D]gown be gold in[G]stead?

I'll take the [C]red clay robe with the [G]red clay wings,
And a [D]red clay halo for my [G]head.
