nd fret 


Intro: G  C  G  C  Am  D  

   G        C          G 
So here you go, you're on your own 
    C                D 
The flower blooms so freely 
    G        C       G 
For fortune, musket, fife and drum 
     C                 D 
Your faking days won't leave you 


       C         Am      D 
'Cause young man now you nurse the gun 
       C       Am     D 
You're nervous in the morning 
       G         Am         G    C 
'Neath shattered skies your body lies 
       Am           C  D    G  D  C  D 
On the dark side of reason 


    G        C       G 
The blood is lusting in your heart 
     C                 D 
Your flesh red hot and lonely 
    G         C         G 
And vengeance gulps the bitter cup 
     C                 D 
That once held wine so sweetly 


    C          Am      D 
But young man, legends still unfold 
    C   Am        D 
For regiment, for glory 
    G          Am         G           C 
You search for gold, like you've been told 
        Am                 C     D     
And the light of day won't leave you 



G But run C D G You'll never turn and run C D G The everlasting gun C D G Your day will surely come C D You'll never run
INTERLUDE: G C Am D G C Am D G C G For fickle kings, you click the heels C D Where a bleak moon leans so weary G C G Forgotten names on faceless graves C D G Your father's home awaits you C Am D Oh, the warrior is not the fool C Am D The refugee of freedom G Am G C But the outlawed man who holds no gun Am C D On the dark side of reason
G But run C D G You'll never turn and run C D G The everlasting gun C D G Your day will surely come C D You'll never run
G But run C D G You'll never turn and run C D G The everlasting gun C D G Your day will surely come C D You'll never run
