Verse 2
D D 
 
Sure as hell he was dead as they come
G G 
 
D D 
 
Gm Gm 
 
And he was already starting to smell
D D 
 
G G 
 
Just a kid with his hair slicked back
D D 
 
And a knife tucked into his belt
G G 
 
D D 
 
Was he unforgiven or just
G G 
 
tired of living a life
D D 
 
That never felt like his?
Gm Gm 
 
D D 
 
Gm Gm 
 
Though I was was worn and weary,

I thought I'd bury him
D D 
 
And lay his soul to rest out in the desert

his   dead man's hand

In a grave out here where

G G 
 
D D 
 
the coyote's cry

Verse 4
D D 
 
G G 
 
I stared right into the endless void
D D 
 
And I ain't going back if
G G 
 
D D 
 
I got any choice
G G 
 
I know how to live, I don't know how to die
D D 
 
And there ain't no thrills
G G 
 
D D 
 
in the afterlife

Verse 5
D D 
 
G G 
 
So lift me up out of here my friend

And I'll wander the night
G G 
 
'til the ages end."

walked through the sand

And he waved goodbye with his dead man's hand
