[Verse 1]
E Am E Am Yellow lines in the dead of the night, I was heading back out west. E Am E Am Trying to keep my eyes open wide, I'd gone days without any rest. E Am E Am Saw him lying in the road looking bad about 20 yards ahead. E Am E Am You come back from a trip to the east but you don't come back from the dead.

[Verse 2]
E Am E Am Sure as hell he was dead as they come and he was already starting to smell. E Am E Am Just a kid with his hair slicked back and a knife tucked into his belt. E Am E Am Was he unforgiven or just tired of living a life that never felt like his? E Am Though I was was worn and weary, I thought I'd bury him E Am E and lay his soul to rest out in the desert night.

[Chorus]
E G# A E I laid him down in a grave in the sand E G# A E and he grabbed my arm with his dead man's hand. E G# A E He said: "I know I'm dead but I don't wanna lie E G# A E in a grave out here where the coyote's cry. E G# A E I stared right into the endless void E G# A E and I ain't going back if I got any choice. E G# A E I know how to live, I don't know how to die E G# A E and there ain't no thrills in the afterlife. E G# A E So lift me up out of here my friend E G# A E and I'll wander the night 'til the ages end." E G# A E Lit by the moon he walked through the sand E G# A E and he waved goodbye with his dead man's hand.

E Am E Em E Am He will roam forever, haunting the desert. E Am E Em E Am E He will roam forever, haunting the desert.
