Capo 4th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro x1

Sometimes I wish I was dead and gone

 Would not walk this world no more

 And all my troubles will pass away

 As I walk through Heaven’s door

As long as I can remember now

 Been out here all my own

 Oh how I was wish I was in your arms

 To rest my achy bones

 Can’t put me in the water

 Can’t put me in my grave

 But no matter what you want from me

 I ain’t the one to save

It’s lonely in a border town

Where no one knows your name

I’ll spin this world right into the ground

‘Til only light remains

When doors are shut for you my dear

You simply bring them down

But I just sit there biding my time

Until the keys just came around

Chorus x1

Banjo solo x1

Mandolin solo x1

There’s holy ghosts and blinded eyes

They’re riding for my soul

I ain't the man that you thought you knew

I ain't that man no more

Remember when we owned it all

Those days went by so slow

But all those times are passed and gone

And I got nowhere to go

Chorus x2

 No matter what you want from me

 I ain't the one to save
