original from "the red dirt rangers"
Am C
Went out west to take my rest
G Am
and leave it all behind me
Am C
Try to find some piece of mind
G Am
nothin to remind me
C G Am
Listen to the birds singing on the telephone line
C G Am
Up in the hills where the spirits fly
C G Am
And once again im staring down the sun
The wind kicks up the dust
in a busted boom town
You can almost hear the sound
of things that went before
The oil and gold rob your soul from this town
Spirits fly you can hear them cry at sundown
And once again im staring down the sun
A night bird sings and spreads her wings
and darkness claims its kingdom
Shadows dance beyond my glance
have i really seen them
And once again im staring down the sun
And once again im staring down the sun
The past may be forgotten
but its never really gone
Steel to rust bones to dust
but the spirit carries on
And once again im staring down the sun
And once again im staring down the sun
And once again im staring down the sun
