Part 3

Em Am Bm B 2x Em I rode like hell with a pain in my side Am The last thing I saw were the sheriffs eyes Bm B I shoulda seen the cliff but I was looking behind Em When I fell fifty feet to into the river below Am I let the water take me till the current slowed Bm B Em Not sure if I was living or if I was a ghost Em I wandered through the desert and into the pines Am I stumbled up the mountain as day turned to night Bm B I took my final breaths under a starry sky Em That’s when I saw something I’ll never forget Am A star fell from the heavens and stopped over my head Bm B And with a beam of light the angel pulled me from death Am G D It washed my wounds away Am G Bm B And now I’m here to stay C Em All I ever wanted was the world for you G D I couldn’t buy it so I stole it now it’s time to move C Em D The life we had before can never return, but I will for you, this bridge is set to burn C Em I will follow you into the darkest night G D As long as we’re together we will find the light C Em D I’ve stared into the void an angels eye, and though I would, for you, C Em D I can never die C (back to verse progression) I can never die Em Am Bm B Em In a flash of light, the angel was gone Am My horse stood before me, I felt something was wrong Bm B Don’t know how I was alive but I had to move on Em The sun burned high fore I saw the town Am There was something going on that folks were gathered round Bm B Em Thats when I saw my baby hanging over the ground Em Oh my love, oh what have they done Am I was always too late, always on the run Bm B But now I didn’t even slow as I drew my gun Em With a single bullet I severed the rope Am The town folk were frozen like they’d seen a ghost Bm B I took your body and away we rode Am We rode all day and we never stopped Em I will take you to the angel on the mountain top Am I waited till the morning but it never came Em Oh did I lose a love that I’ll never reclaim? C Em All I ever wanted was the world for you G D I couldn’t buy it so I stole it now it’s time to move C Em D The life we had before can never return, but I will for you, this bridge is set to burn C Em I will follow you into the darkest night G D As long as we’re together we will find the light C Em D I’ve stared into the void an angels eye, and though I would, for you, C Em D I can never die C Em D I can never die Em I can never BRIDGE/ENDING Em D G C 2x Em D I left the shovel at the head of your grave G C And cried by the pond, as I tried pray Em D I opened my mouth but there was nothing to say G C And in that moment, the angel came C D Em C Through my tears, through the fog, I saw a silhouette on the pond D I rubbed eyes in awe C D Then you spoke in song Em C Said I love you but I gotta move on D Don’t wanna leave but I don’t belong Em C Gotta find some way to get gone D Are you coming along? Em D So I left all the money, and my treasure behind G C Buried neath the stone by the water side Em D I’ll follow your trail and I’ll never rest G C Just an ever living ghost ever chasing the dead Em D I’ll keep on moving, ain’t afraid to die G C I’ve done it already and I’m still alive Em D I’ll travel this world til I reach the end G C I’m gonna find my baby if it kills me again Em D G C Outro repeats until song fades out
