Last Stand In Open Country

      E                                A
I was looking for America in a western movie
      C#m                                  A
Saw a young gunslinger with something to prove
      F#m
I came looking ... like anybody else
      C#m
I came searching ... like anybody else
D                       B
Looking for that golden calf

           E                                A
And I came shooting for the stars like any young blood
        C#m                         A
Found a fat cat city and a crooked judge
         F#m
I killed anything ... standing in my path
         C#m
I killed anything ... till I laid my hands
D                       B
Laid 'em on that golden calf

[Chorus]
             E                  C#m
Now it's our last stand in open country
            E                  C#m
This is my last chance to be with you
            A                C#m
This is the last dance for this kind of man
Continues after the ad
          A           B            E
I'm still looking for something to prove

[Verse]
          E                             A
I came around full circle, aged like an old dog
 C#m                                        A
Looking at them young bucks, just green as frogs
            F#m
But I ain't laying back, no time to laugh
        C#m
I aint laying back, there's a new kid coming,
D                       B
Gunning for that golden calf

      E                                A
I was looking for America in a western movie
    C#m                                       A
Saw young pike bishop striding through aqua verde
       F#m
He was headed down that dusty path
       C#m
He was headed down to that blood bath
D                       B
Chasing down that golden calf

[Chorus]
              E                  C#m
Now it's our last stand in open country
           E                     C#m
This is my last chance to be with you
            A                   C#m
This is the last dance for this kind of man
           A           B            E
I'm still looking for something to prove

[Bridge]
             F#m            G#m
But there's always someone faster
        A              C#m
Someone quicker on the draw
    F#m                G#m     A            B
Somebody with a hunger closing in, someone younger
         F#m          A       B
Stepping up to be the next outlaw

[Chorus]
             E                  C#m
Now it's our last stand in open country
           E                      C#m
This is my last chance to be with you
            A               C#m
This is the last dance for this kind of man
              A           B            C#m
And I'm still looking for something to prove
              A           B                  E
Yeah, I'm still looking for something ... to prove
