Dangerous Spirits

by: Ray Wylie Hubbard

CD: Dangerous Spirits

From: Andrew@lyonap.force9.co.uk

Intro: [D]

[D]

Dangerous spirits are at large in the hills

[D]

cold dark wings is in the air

[D] [G]

some have been lost to the shadows within the light

[D] [A] [D]

some are beyond the reach of prayer

[D]

I myself have stood with the ravens in the rain

[D]

a darkness in my heart and a younger face

[D] [G]

and with a stolen chestnut mare and a blue navy colt

[D] [A] [D]

I was above the law outside the bounds of grace

[D]

With a pistol in my hand and no kindness in my eyes

[D]

I wore these as a badge high in fashion

[D] [G]

but I had to walk away from the powder and the flame

[D] [A] [D]

the reason was not fear it was compassion

[D]

I let my revolver fall from my hands

[D]

and put on the coat of a pilgrim

[D] [G]

now there is more to me than between my hat and boots

[D] [A] [D]

and the treasures I own no one can steal them

Solo

[D]

Now I stand in the dirt with the dust on my boots

[D]

the road that I choose is less travelled

[D] [G]

the flag that I follow is full of holes and torn

[D] [A] [D]

and its sacred threads can never be unraveled

[D]

And I have met a woman who is in my breath and bones

[D]

she's at ease in either calico or leather

[D] [G]

she prays to a god who does not hurt or hate

[D] [A] [D]

she wears earrings of crystals and feathers

Solo

[D]

Since I left my revolver in the dirt

[D]

I have known peace since that hour

[D] [G]

and now I see my life passing before my eyes

[D] [A] [D]

as a petal falling from a flower

[D]

Ah but there are dangerous spirits are at large in the hills

[D]

cold dark wings is in the air

[D] [G]

some have been lost to the shadows within the light

[D] [A] [D]

some are beyond the reach of prayer
