Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 A burnin' hot sun a cryin' for water black wings circle the sky

 Stumblin' and fallin' somebody's callin' you're lost on the desert to die

 I had to give up and they took me to jail but I hid all the money I got

 Way out on the desert where no one could get it and I left a mark at the spot

 Then I got away and I ran for the desert the devil had taken control

I needed water but he said I'd make it near the money is a big waterhole

 A burnin' hot sun a cryin' for water black wings circle the sky

 Stumblin' and fallin' somebody's callin' you're lost on the desert to die

Guitar solo

 Just up ahead is where I left my mark or it may be to the left or the right

 I've been runnin' all day and they'll catch up tomorrow I've got to find it

 tonight

 Then up jumped the devil and ran away laughin' he drank all the waterholes

 dry

 He moved my mark till I'm running in circles and lost on the desert to die

 A burnin' hot sun a cryin' for water black wings circle the sky

 Stumblin' and fallin' somebody's callin' you're lost on the desert to die

  (Fade out)

Lost on the desert to die, lost on the desert to die
