Gallows

Gm C I spent a year out in the desert, I spent a year out in the sea Eb C I spend my nights under the stars just dreaming of sleep Gm I still question where I've been F I don't know where I will go Eb C Gm F Eb I just look up to the skies like there's a sign I didn't see, I didn't know C Gm F Eb Like there's a sign I didn't know C Lord can you bring me back home Gm F I know I've lived a wicked life, and I will never change my ways Eb C And unapologetic runaway until it's my last day Gm Why is it so easy to light a match and watch? Eb We were made of dried up timber C We were made to turn to dust Gm F C Eb Oooooh Take me on down Gm F C Eb Oooooh At the gallows it was mercy I had found Gm F So I went back to my home and I burned it to the ground Eb C An angel sat beside of me, we both watched it all fall down Gm "I'm a loner of a lover, I'm a lover of my ways Eb C So if you're here to take me back, there ain't nothing left to save." Gm F C Eb Oooooh Burned it all down Gm F C Eb Oooooh At the gallows it was mercy I had found Gm F C Eb Oooooh Take me on down Gm F C Eb Oooooh At the gallows it was mercy I had found Gm F I made it to the edge, there was nothing left to see Eb Cm I lit one last cigarette, the angel sat beside of me Gm I said, "I know you've got your job." F Eb C Cm He said, "The grace that I have brung is that your death is gonna save you from the things you're running from End chorus Gm F C Eb Oooooh Take me on down Gm F C Eb Oooooh At the gallows it was mercy I had found Gm F C Eb Oooooh Take me on down Gm F C Eb Oooooh At the gallows it was mercy I had found Gm F C Eb Oooooh At the gallows it was mercy I had found
