   Bm     G         A       D
The young man stands on the edge of his porch
   Em     Bm        Em      F#
The days were short and the father was gone
       Bm        G     A         D
There was no one in the town and no one in the field
   Em       Bm         Em       F#
This dusty barren land had given all it could yield

       Bm        G       A      D
Iʼve been kicked off my land at the age of sixteen
   Em       Bm          Em          F#
And I have no idea where else my heart could have been
 Bm        G        A        D
I placed all my trust at the foot of this hill
   Em    Bm          Em     F#
And now I am sure my heart can never be still
  Bm       G         A      D
So collect your courage and collect your horse
   Em        Bm         Em     F#
And pray you never feel this same kind of remorse

Bm    G      A     D
Seal my heart and brake my pride
   Em      Bm        Em      F#
Iʼve nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide
 Bm    G      A     D
Align my heart, my body, my mind
  Em         Bm     Em   F#
To face what Iʼve done and do my time

    Bm     G        A       D
Well you are my accuser, now look in my face
Em         Bm        Em     F#
Your opression reeks of your greed and disgrace
  Bm    G      A      D
So one man has and another has not
Em       Bm       Em       F#
How can you love what it is you have got
      Bm       G         A        D
When you took it all from the weak hands of the poor?
Em     Bm             Em      F#
Liars and thieves you know not what is in store

    Bm       G       A        D
There will come a time I will look in your eye
   Em          Bm       Em      F#
You will pray to the God that you always denied
   Bm       G         A    D
The Iʼll go out back and Iʼll get my gun
          Em    Bm          Em  F#
Iʼll say, "You havenʼt met me, I am the only son"

Bm    G      A     D
Seal my heart and brake my pride
   Em      Bm        Em      F#
Iʼve nowhere to stand and now nowhere to hide
 Bm    G      A     D
Align my heart, my body, my mind
  Em         Bm     Em   F#
To face what Iʼve done and do my time

   Bm     G     A       D
Well yes sir, yes sir, yes it was me
 Em         Bm        Em         F#
I know what Iʼve done, cause I know what Iʼve seen
Bm      G       A    D
I went out back and I got my gun
         Em    Bm          Em  F#
I said, "You havenʼt met me, I am the only son"
