Wanted Man

Dm/A
I came down from the country
Dm/A
On a long and lonesome road
Dm/A
I was running from some trouble
Dm/A
Over horses they say I stole
            G/A                    
Never fired a shot in anger
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
There is no blood on my hands
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
I got a law man 20 miles behind me
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
Says I am a wanted man
   Dm/A


[Verse 2]
Dm/A
Gonna ride on up the river
Dm/A
Till my trail is washed away
Dm/A
And if fate finds me tomorrow
Dm/A
Well that wont slow me down today
            G/A                    
He is there on the ridge behind me
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
And I know this hidden land
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
And dreams that remind me
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
Ill always be a wanted man
   Dm/A

[Verse 3]
Dm/A
From the wild New England ranges
Dm/A
That I learned when I was young
Dm/A
We were running stolen horses
Dm/A
With my older brother William
            G/A                    
To the shoot-out in Uralla
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
Back in 1863
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
With my Mary and the others
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
Every mile he shadowed me
   Dm/A


[Verse 4]
Dm/A
Up ahead in those mountains
Dm/A
There are cold dark memories
Dm/A
And I can see sweet Marys face
Dm/A
In the bark of the willow trees
            G/A                    
There are stones in the river
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
Sing her name, and when I can
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
I sing it back in a whisper
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
Cause I am a wanted man
   Dm/A


[Instrumental]
Dm/A   Am   Dm/A (x2)

[Verse 5]
Dm/A
Right now I got whiskey
Dm/A
And a borrowed thoroughbred
Dm/A
And another strung behind me
Dm/A
To keep me 20 miles ahead
            G/A                    
But Im tired the sun is going
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
From this wild Kentucky plain
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
And I ride on forever knowing
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
Ill never see that girl again
   Dm/A


[Verse 6]
Dm/A
Maryanne, Maryanne,
Dm/A
If you were here with me today
Dm/A
Id ride us up oer the border
Dm/A
Cause Goa rivers where wed stay
            G/A                    
But Im alone in this valley
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
My shadow has other plans
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
Im alone always willing
   Dm/A

            G/A                    
And I will die a wanted man
   Dm/A
