[Intro] E A E E E A E A E A E A B B [Verse 1]
    E            A                 E
Oh, I was set to find the lonesome place

            A                B
Where I was lost but left to trace

           C#m            A        B
By carving riddles on the lonesome vine

        E            A             E
Oh, but rumor has it that I wasn't born

              A             B
I just walked in one frosty morn

         C#m            A      B
Into the vision of some vacant mind
[Chorus 1]
    A             B           E        A
Oh, once I held a pony by its flagging mane

    A                 B             E       A
And once I called the shadow in the turning game

    C#m    B          A                        B
But I will fight this stranger that you should fear

   C#m     B    A                   E
So I won't be a burden of tomorrow, dear
[Instrumental] E A E A [Verse 2]
    E               A             E
Oh, Xavier's on the border of the sun

              A               B
Swings on the chambers of her guns

             C#m                 A         B
And tries to shoot the chord and light the path

        E               A                E
Oh, but hell I'm just a blind man on the plains

           A             B
I drink my water when it rains

            C#m              A         B
And live by chance among the lightning strikes
[Chorus 2]
    A             B             E    A 
Oh, once I held a glacier to an open flame

    A                B              E      A
And once I felt like wildcat in the fallen game

    C#m    B          A                        B
But I will fight this stranger that you should fear

   C#m     B    A                   E
So I won't be a burden of tomorrow, dear
[Instrumental] E A E E E A [Chorus 3]
        A               B                E        A 
Oh, the singer's on the edge to feed the canyon's mouth

     A             B              E               C#m
They will go on forever till they sing you out of time

    C#m    B          A                        B
But I will fight this stranger that you should fear

   C#m     B    A                   E
So I won't be a burden of tomorrow, dear
