Eb Bb

Seen him playing in his backyard

Ab Eb

Young boy just starting out

Bb G7B Cm

So much history in this landscape

Db Bb

So much confusion, so much doubt

Eb Bb

Been there drinking on that front porch

Ab Eb

Angry kids, mean and dumb

Bb G7B Cm

Looks like a painting, that blue skyline

Db G

God hates fags where we come from

Ab Eb

'Western skies' don't make it right

Bb G7B Cm

'Home of the brave' don't make no sense

G7

I've seen a scarecrow wrapped in wire

Cm

Left to die on a high ridge fence

Fm7

It's a cold, cold wind

EbG

It's a cold, cold wind

Cm GB Cm GB FA Fm G Cm Ab Bb Eb

It's a cold wind blowing, Wyoming

Eb Bb

See two coyotes run down a deer

Ab Eb

Hate what we don't understand

Bb G7B Cm

You pioneers give us your children

Db G7B

But it's your blood that stains their hands

(CHORUS)

G Cm

Somewhere that road forks up ahead

G Cm

To ignorance and innocence

Ab Bb

Three lives drift on different winds

G7B Cm

Two lives ruined, once life spent

(CHORUS)
