Gill Landry - The Ballad Of Lawless Soirez Chords

Capo 3

 Am 
Lying in my bed got no dreams in my head
      E                            Am 
that haven't been drug cross the floor
 Am 
waiting for the sun buried on the ocean
    E                                      Am 
for what feels like ten thousand years or more

 Dm                      Am 
I have seen the mountain And I've walked the valleys
 E                           Am 
I've been through the cities I have walked the alleys
 Dm                  Am 
on a summer evening with the racoons grieving
E                  Am 
 I've seen the cold dark mare

 G                    C 
I was young and bold falling in love with barmaids
 E               Am 
out on cemetary row
 Dm                          Am 
my pockets lined with gold, waiting for the crusades
 E                              Am 
to leave this helpless world alone

Am
I looked from flesh and bone on the place that I called home
E                              Am
standing in the ruins of downtown
Am
Iron lace haunted street, itching heel has got me beat
E                                        Am
but there's nothing that important to me now


 Dm                   Am 
I was born a rambler, guess I always will
 E                     Am 
once you get the habit you just can't stand still
    Dm                       Am 
but now I'm all dishevelled running like the devil
 E                  Am 
on my hind legs in the sun


 G                    C 
There were many times I wish that I'd have stayed
 E                    Am 
but I know I can't go home
 Dm                     Am 
I tried to stay in time but time slips away
 E                     Am 
now I'm out here on my own



 Am 
when you're poor without a dream this old world keeps getting mean
 E                                 Am 
and happiness is just a word you know
 Am 
left in a world of pain on ten thousand miles of railroad train
 E                               Am 
it doesn't really matter where I go

 Dm                          Am 
Cross the states by moonlight I often wonder
 E                      Am 
if they'll ever hang me for all the love I stole
 Dm                    Am 
O Mr Organ Grinder, please tell me where to find Her
 E                          Am 
O Lady Luck just dropped me cold

 G                  C 
Sometimes I'm lost sometimes I'm driven
 E                           Am 
sometimes I know not where to roam
 Dm                   Am 
they're gonna bury me on some forgotten morning
 E                    Am 
until then I have no home
