G D
I dream with my eyes open
G D
I see with my eyes closed
G Bm
I watch through many windows
A
Heaven only knows
G D
Some words can't be spoken
G Bm
Some things can't be explained
D G
Out when it gets lonesome
D
In the early summer rain
G D
Black crow he's the joker
G D
Red rail hawk's the king
G Bm
Diamondback he's the tax man
A
He don't miss a thing
G D
Out where there's no forgiveness
G Bm
Out where's there's no blame
D G
Out where it's gets lonesome
D
In the early summer rain
A
There's wind down in these ditches
G
There's red dust on the rye
D G
But there's storm up on the ridges
D
There's a silver tear in my eyes
A
All I know is you my friend
G
Will not see my pain
D G
Out where it gets lonesome
D G
In the early summer rain
G D
There's a red flying horse by the roadside
G D
Spreading his wings again
G Bm
Me and him are gonna take a little ride
A
Hope we catch a good tail wind
G D
Take me to the purple mountain
G Bm
Where nobody knows my name
D G
Out where it gets lonesome
A
In the early summer rain
A
There's wind down in these ditches
G
There's red dust on the rye
D G
But there's storm up on the ridges
D
There's a silver tear in my eyes
A
All I know is you my friend
G
Will not see my pain
D G
Out where it gets lonesome
D
In the early summer rain
A
All I know is you my friend
G
Will not see my pain
D G
Out where it gets lonesome
D G D
In the early summer rain
