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

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

Chorus:
E MajorE      G#G#     A augmentedA      E MajorE
I laid him down in a grave in the sand
E MajorE         G#G#      A augmentedA     E MajorE
and he grabbed my arm with his dead man's hand.
E MajorE          G#G#      A augmentedA     E MajorE
He said: "I know I'm dead but I don't wanna lie
E MajorE        G#G#       A augmentedA    E MajorE
in a grave out here where the coyote's cry.

E MajorE        G#G#    A augmentedA    E MajorE
I stared right into the endless void
E MajorE         G#G#    A augmentedA     E MajorE
and I ain't going back if I got any choice.
E MajorE       G#G#      A augmentedA      E MajorE
I know how to live, I don't know how to die
E MajorE          G#G#       A augmentedA   E MajorE
and there ain't no thrills in the afterlife.

E MajorE      G#G#    A augmentedA    E MajorE
So lift me up out of here my friend
E MajorE          G#G#       A augmentedA  E MajorE
and I'll wander the night 'til the ages end."
E MajorE      G#G#    A augmentedA        E MajorE
Lit by the moon he walked through the sand
E MajorE        G#G#      A augmentedA     E MajorE
and he waved goodbye with his dead man's hand.

Outro:

He will roam forever, haunting the desert.

He will roam forever, haunting the desert.
