Am 
While the day's time was resting 
         G       Am 
I'd ride in on nights 
         Am 
And I'd spill all their blood 
            G          Am 
Before the waking of light 

C 
Finished with reaping 
     G         Am 
I'd ride out again 
           Am              C 
While they cry with their children 
     G          Am 
And bury their men 

Am             G                   Am 
A beguiler of women,ā?I'dā?settleā?for none 
       Am                          G             Am 
I tookā?daughters from fathers,ā?left mothers with sons 
C                       G             Am 
Consumed by glory and thirsting with lust 
Am                    C             G        Am 
In the end all those things turn to ashes or dust 

                  F 
And weight in my lungs 
                  Am 
Oh, weight in my lungs 

( F  C  G  Am ) 
( F  C  G  Am ) 
( C  G  Am ) 
( F  C  G  Am ) 

Am                      G      Am 
Men tried to struggle, women appease 
                Am           G         Am 
Children would fall down to grovel and plead 
   C                     G          Am 
Drowning in prayer and full of mistrust 
        C                               G       Am 
In the end all those things turned to ashes or dust 

                 F 
And weight in my lungs 
                 Am 
Oh, weight in my lungs
