Tom: D

 D
There's a pale horse comin'

And I'm gonna ride it

I'll rise in the morning

With my fate beside it
        G               D
I'm a dead man walkin'
        G               D
I'm a dead man walkin'
D
In Saint James Parish

I was born and Christened

How I've got my story

Well Mister, there ain't no need
G               D
for you to listen
                 G               D
It's just a dead man talkin'
G                       D
Once I had a job, I had a girl
            G
But between our dreams
                     D
and action lie this world
D
Well, in the deep forest

Their blood and tears rushed over me

All I could feel was the drugs

and the shotgun
               G         D
And my fear up inside me
           G             D
Like a dead man talkin'
G
Beneath the summer sky
                  D
my eyes went black
G
Sister, I won't ask for forgiveness,
      A          D
my sins are all I have
D
Tonight the clouds above my prison

Move slowly 'cross the sky

There is a new day comin'
                A                D
And my dreams are full tonight.
