The Passenger Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 It was Gdark and I was drivin' down a Emloney Texas road

 The Cnight was hot and Dsleep pulled at my Emeyes

 I was Gthinkin' bout the wild Emtimes and the women that I'd had

 The deCceitful things I'd Ddone and those Emlies

GStandin' in the shadows by the Dside of the road

 Was a Cfigure of a withered old Emman

 He Gwore a black bandanna a Drolled brim Stetson hat

 With a Ctwo inch scarlet hat Emband

 He Gheld his wrinkled hand up as a Emsign to shut her down

 So I Cpulled over and Dstopped by his Emside

 He Gopened up the door slid Emin and sat down

 He said Cmy Dain't it hot toEmnight

 I Gstudied this old man and it Dseemed mighty strange

 For Chim to be out here all Emalone

GThen he started talkin' and he Dtold me many things

 Of Ctimes like both of us had Emknown

 He Gtold me of the wild life and the Emwomen that he'd had

 How Cnone of them had Dever meant a Emthing

 And he Gtold me of a black night Emmuch the same as this

 Of the Cstrange and Dawesome things he'd Emseen

GA man beside the road had raised his Dhand

 and flagged him down so he Cstopped and let him Emin

 That Gstranger told him stories like DI am hearing now

 Bout the Cwild times and all the Emsin

 Then the Gcar got cold and clammy and this Emold man looked at me

 He said Cboy I've Dcome here for Emyou

 Your Gdays of wicked sinnin' have Emcome to an end

 and as Cmortal on this Dearth boy you are Emthrough

 Then his Geyes got red and fiery as he Dtook his Stetson off

 To reCveal his evil horns shiny and Emblack

 My GGod the fear came o'er me and my Dsenses were all lost

 I Cfought with him until we finally Emcrashed

 Next Gday the car was found at the Embottom of a draw

 The young Ccowboy was Dfound beside the Emwreck

 His Gcar had been consumed by fire

 but the cowboy had no Emmarks

 Except the Csmokin' pitch fork Dbrand upon his Emneck

That's it! Have fun!
