[G]
In the night sky, the moon is high, [Gm] I hear that wolf boy [G] sing
I also cry as I close my [Gm] eyes, if [G] only I had [Dm] wings
[G] Five dollar bill on my window sill, [Bb] a [G] booze liquor in my glass
I sit here long till the whiskey's [Bb] gone, the [C] neighbors [Dm] they don't [G] ask
I see my life, I turn to my hands, flags of [Dm] gold in a river of [G] sand
I see my life, I turn to my hands, flags of gold in a river of [Am] sand
[Gm] [G]
That old Cadillac used to be [Bb] black, [G] just sits there in my yard
A pinch of dust on top of the road, [Dm] it's never [Gm] did get [G] that far
Sometimes I go down to the shantytown, [G] and I dance till long
Feel the heat of that carnival beat, but it don't last very long
I see my life, I turn to my hands, flags of gold in a river [F] of [G] sand
I see my life, I turn to my hands, flags of gold in a river of sand
[Gm]
[D] [C]
[G] My loneliness is a nice [Gb] kiss, and it burns the back of my [G] tongue
Sacred stain colors everything, the hope [Gm] is for [Dm] the young
When [G] it's my turn to cross that line, [Gm] I'll embrace [G] eternity
Just hold my bones beneath the stones [Dm] where the angels sent [G] me free
I see my life, I turn to my hands, flags of gold in a river of sand
I see my life, I turn to my hands, flags of gold in a river of sand
I see my life, I turn to my hands, flags of gold in a river of sand
I see my life, I turn to my hands, flags of gold in a river of sand Bye now!
