 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 Out where the creek turns shallow and sandy     
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 And the moon comes skimmin' away the stars    
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 The wind in the mesquite comes rushin' over the hilltops 
 BbEb
 Straight into my arms
 BbBb9Bb
Straight into my arms       
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 I'm riding hard carryin' a catch of roses  
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 And a fresh map that I made 
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 Tonight I'm gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul
 BbEb
 And dance on its grave
 BbBb9Bb
And dance on its grave       
 FBbEb
It's been a long time comin', my dear 
 FBbEb
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here
 Bb
now it's here

 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 Well my daddy he was just a stranger  
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 Lived in a hotel downtown  
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 When I was a kid he was just somebody      
 BbEb
 Somebody I'd see around
 BbBb9Bb
Somebody I'd see around        

 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 Now down below and pullin' on my shirt 
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 I got some kids of my own    
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 Well if I had one wish in this god forsaken world, kids
 BbEb
 It'd be that your mistakes would be your own

 BbBb9Bb
Yea your sins would be your own         
 FBbEb
It's been a long time comin', my dear 
 FBbEb
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here
 Bb
now it's here

Bridge-Break

 G#D#G#D#F

 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 Out 'neath the arms of Cassiopeia  
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 Where the sword of Orion sweeps            
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 It's me and you, Rosie, cracklin' like crossed wires
 BbEb
 And you breathin' in your sleep
 BbBb9Bb
You breathin' in your sleep    

 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 Well there's just a spark of campfire burning
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 Two kids in a sleeping bag beside   
 BbBb9BbBb9Bb
 I Reach 'neath your shirt, lay my hands across your belly

 BbEb
 And feel another one kickin' inside
 Bb
I ain't gonna fuck it up this time

 FBbEb
It's been a long time comin', my dear
 FBbEb
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here
 FBbEb
It's been a long time comin', my dear
 FBbEb
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here

(Fade out)
