Verse 1
Am
He drank
his last cup of coffee
from the mornin' pot
E
Am
The sun was goin' down
He loaded some shells
and a 12 -gauge shotgun
E
Am
Got in his truck and headed into town
He rode 11 miles,
stopped at a neighbor's house
E
Am
He said, I might be gone for a while
If it's not too much trouble,
and you get the time,
E
Am
E
Am
would you take care of cows?
He drew into town
with a bad wind blowing
E
Am
Stopped at a bar he had fre quented
He looked through the room
with his pale green eyes
E
Am
And had some shots of tequila
He walked out of the bar
with a bad wind blowing
E
Am
One thing on his mind
He looked into the window
of a small cafe
E
Am
Already knew what he would find
This woman of twenty years was laughing
And holdin' hands
E
with a man
Am
he'd never seen before
He went inside, sat down at the table
E
Am
E
Am
Laid his shotgun on the floor
He never said a word,
and they both started crying
E
Am
E
Am
He could feel the heat in his chest
He could hear the bad wind howling,
and he was ready to kill them all
E
Am
E
Am
And let God take care of the rest
No one will ever know why they
picked up the shotgun
E
Am
and quietly left the room
The wind had settled down
and was quiet as ashes
E
He took a deep breath
Am
and just stared at the moon
He felt peaceful inside
and headed back to his place
E
Sometimes it's best to just
Am
E
Am
ride away
E
Am
You
The Bad Wind
