The Refreshments – Sin Nombre (Guitar)

Em
Rode hard and put up wet

C
I aimed down, but I can't get up yeah

D                                       Em     D
It's a long ride back to the way I want to feel

Em
Sundown across the plain

C
I've been sore before, I'll be sore again

D                                Em  D
No place to hide to keep from running

Em
Laid down in a cottonwood hallow

C
I left the trail, no man could follow

D                                       Em  D
Is it safe to rest my head again till morning?

Em
Cracked throat and my canteen's dry

C
And rain don't fall from an empty sky

D                                     Em      D
So I'll whisper Hail Marys till the sun comes up

          C
Now don't tell me that part of the story when

    G               D
The cowboy falls in love

          C
When it's raining in his pistol

        G               D
And his saddle, and the stars above

         G                D
When the candle's burnin' down

         G              C
And when midnight comes around

            G                D
Now all the best that we can hope for

           C
Is to be laughing when we finally hit the ground

Em
Rode hard and come down tired

C
Stripped from the saddle when the eye of the fire

D                                    Em  D
And deep in dreams of women in clean water

Em
And I did before what I'll do again

C
So forgive me father if I have sinned

D                          Em      D
But the old wood cracks, before it bends

          C
Now don't tell me that part of the story when

    G               D
The cowboy falls in love

          C
When it's raining in his pistol

        G               D
And his saddle, and the stars above

         G               D
When the candle's burnin down

         G              C
And when midnight comes around

            G                D
Now all the best that we can hope for

           C
Is to be laughing when we finally hit the ground

          C
Now don't tell me that part of the story when

    G               D

            G                D
Now all the best that we can hope for

           C
Is to be laughing when we finally hit yeah

         G               D
When the candle's burnin down

And when midnight comes around
