CmGm
In from the coast, riding like the wind and racing the moon.
CmGm
Shadows on the road, dancing and weaving like a crazy fool.
CmGm
A horseman is coming, death in his heart for a rendezvous.
A#A#7Cm
And where the traveller goes, nobody knows.
A#A#7Cm
Where the traveller goes, nobody knows.
A candle in the night, fear on every face when he goes inside.
(Maybe heʼs on the run)
Get back from the bar, a stranger in town is a dangerous sight
(maybe heʼs got a gun)
bring a bottle of whiskey landlord, I want to talk for a while
And where the traveller goes, a cold wind blows.
Where the traveller goes, a cold wind blows.
Chorus:
CmA#
There is something in his eyes, something in his hands,
G#Cm
you can almost smell his revenge.
A#
And whoever he is after, it will be a disaster,
G#Gmaj7Cm
this man is gonna take him to the very end.
Well, the landlord he trembled staring at a face heʼd seen somewhere before.
(you laid him in the ground)
Suddenly remembered a killing, yes, a murder many years before.
(tʼwas you that shot him down)
He said to a boy, saddle me the black, Iʼll meet you down below,
with this man I must talk, with this traveller I go,
with this man I must talk, yes with him I must go.
Chorus:
G#maj7G#A#
and they were never seen again.
