 E                 B        A         G 
 Across the plain flew the lone grey rider 
 E            B       A       G 
 Leather bag pounding on his back 
 E                     B         A       G 
 Above the clouds the moon was climbing higher 
   E               B            A     G 
 A pack of wolves wanted their money back 
 
D                                 F#m 
 With folded arms the chief stood watching 
D                                 F#m 
 Painted braves slipped down the hill 
A                        G 
 In his ears the spirit talking 
 
 As they closed in 
              B 
 For an easy kill 
 
 
 At the house the door was wide open 
 Wind blew curtains off the rod 
 She was waiting and hoping 
 She was praying to her god 
 
 He was luckier than most men 
 He was barely in his prime 
 As she stood their in the doorway 
 Her long dress flowing 
 Would he make it this time 
 
 {solo} 
 
 Over the hill in the big green country 
 That's the place where the cancer cowboy rides 
 Pure as the driven snow before it got him 
 Sometimes I feel like he's all right 
 
 Sometimes I feel like a piece of paper 
 Sometimes I feel like my own name 
 Sometimes I feel different later 
 Sometimes I feel 
 I feel just the same 
 
 {solo}
