C# Thereʼs a pale horse cominʼ And Iʼm gonna ride it Iʼll rise in the morning With my fate beside it F# C# Iʼm a dead man walkinʼ F# C# Iʼm a dead man walkinʼ C# In Saint James Parish I was born and Christened How Iʼve got my story Well Mister, there ainʼt no need F# C# for you to listen F# C# Itʼs just a dead man talkinʼ F# C# Once I had a job, I had a girl F# But between our dreams C# and action lie this world C# Well, in the deep forest Their blood and tears rushed over me All I could feel was the drugs and the shotgun F# C# And my fear up inside me F# C# Like a dead man talkinʼ F# Beneath the summer sky C# my eyes went black F# Sister, I wonʼt ask for forgiveness, G# C# my sins are all I have C# Tonight the clouds above my prison Move slowly ʼcross the sky There is a new day cominʼ G# C# And my dreams are full tonight.
