G (---------rest----------) C                        G    C/G G

With a [C]big red beacon, and a flag, and a man on the [G]rail [C/G]    [G]
I think you'd[C] better call John,
'Cause it don't look like they're here to[Bm] deliver t[C]he mail
And it's[Bm7] less than a mile [C]away
I [Bm7]hope they didn't come to[C] stay
It's got[Bm7] numbers on the side and a[C] gun
And it's making big[D] waves

VERSE:
Daddy's gone, my brother's out hunting in the mountains

Big John's been drinking since the river took Emmylou

So the Powers That Be left me here to do the thinking

And I just turned twenty two
I was wondering what to do
And the closer they got
The more those feelings grew

VERSE:
Daddy's rifle in my hand felt reassuring
He told me, Red means run, son, numbers add up to nothing
But when the first shot hit the docks I saw it coming
Raised my rifle to my eye
Never stopped to wonder why
Then I saw black
And my face splashed in the sky

VERSE:
Shelter me from the powder and the finger
Cover me with the thought that pulled the trigger
Just think of me as one you'd never figured
Would fade away so young
With so much left undone
Remember me to my love
I know I'll miss her
