Verse 1:
[A-Aadd4-A]I'll go walk across the desert, until I'm by fried by fire.
[A-Aadd4-A]I won't think about, what I left behind.
[A-Aadd4-A]Another 'tracter in her way, I can call my own.
[A-Aadd4-A]Go back home, leave me alone.
[D-D3add4-D]It's a long road, it's a long and narrow [A-Aadd4-A]way,
[E-E7-E]
[D-D3add4-D]But I can't work up to you, you'l[A-Aadd4-A]l surely have work down to me some day.

[A-Aadd4-A]Ever since the critics burned the White House down,
[A-Aadd4-A]There's a bleedin' wound in the heart of town.

[A-Aadd4-A]I saw you buried and I saw you you dug up.

[A-Aadd4-A]Look down angel from the skies, help my weary soul to rise.

Verse 4:
[A-Aadd4-A]In the courtyard of the Golden Sun.
[A-Aadd4-A]You stand and fight, or you break and run.
[A-Aadd4-A]You went and lost your lovely head, for a drink of wine and a crust of bread.
[D-D3add4-D]It's a long road, it's a long and narrow [A-Aadd4-A]way,

Verse 5:
[A-Aadd4-A]We looted and we plundered, long distant shores.

[A-Aadd4-A]Your father left you, your mother too.
[A-Aadd4-A]Even death has, washed his hands of you.

[A-Aadd4-A]This is hard country, to stay alive in.
[A-Aadd4-A]Blades are everywhere and they are breakin' my skin.

[A-Aadd4-A]You won't get out, of here unscarred.

[A-Aadd4-A]You've got too many lovers, wailin' at the wall.
[A-Aadd4-A]If I had a thousand tons, I couldn't count 'em all.
[A-Aadd4-A]Yesterday, I could've put them all in the sea.
[A-Aadd4-A]Today, even one, may be too much for me.

[A-Aadd4-A]I got a heavy stacked woman, with a smile on her face.
[A-Aadd4-A]And she is proud, my soul to grace.
[A-Aadd4-A]I've saved her from an arrow, and pierced my chest.
[A-Aadd4-A]I'm gonna have to take my head, and bury it between her breasts.

Notes:
1. I've done my best to approximate the rhythm contribution, which has a very Tex-Mex
feel. Given that Dave Hildago is in the recorded band, I'm sure that this is his key
signature. :-R
