Tabbed by: Ben White
 
 
Intro:
G D Bb A Ab Bb C G |x2
 
Gm                    F
   In the heat of the desert sun,
Gm                   F
   on the blistering trail
Gm
   An appaloosa and,
D                           Bb  F   C
   a wanted man sprung from jail
 
Gm                    F
   Slow in motion and shadow-less
Gm                    F
   The switch and the spurs
Gm                   D
   Every living thing, with a fatal sting
Bb         F         C
   Bark and rattle this curse
 
 
Chorus:
G D Bb A Ab Bb C G   x2
 
 
Gm               F
   The rider hallucinates
Gm                            F
   The snapping hooves on the sand
Gm                    D
   Spits a venom dream, recalls a stranger scream
Bb       F      C
   And a broken hand...
 
Gm                         F
   The saddle spotted with sweat and blood
Gm                              F
   The poison pumps through his veins
Gm                          D
   There's no stopping this, and now he's powerless
Bb       F           C
   Still holding the reigns...

   Gm                 D
   Any poor souls who trespass against us
   Bb            F        C
   Whether it be beast or man
        Gm                    D
   Will suffer the bite or be stung dead on sight
      Bb          F          C
   By those who inhabit this land
       Gm                      D
   For theirs is the power and this is their kingdom
      Bb          F        C
   As sure as the sun does burn
      Gm                   D
   So enter this path, but heed these four words,
   Bb        F        C
   You shall never return...

   Will suffer the bite or be stung dead on sight
      Bb          F          C
   By those who inhabit this land
       Gm                      D
   For theirs is the power and this is their kingdom
      Bb          F        C
   As sure as the sun does burn
      G                   D
   So enter this path, but heed these four words,
