Look out, Mama, [C] there's a white boat comin' [G] up the river _ _ _ _ _
[C] With a big red beacon and a flag and a man on [G] the rails
I _ _ _ _ [C] think you'd better call John
It don't look like they're here [Bm] to deliver _ [C] the mail _
[G] And [Bm] they're less than a [C] mile away _
[Em] I [Bm] hope they didn't [C] wrong to stay
It's [Bm] got numbers on the side [C] and the gun units makin' [D] big _ waves
_ Daddy [G] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ is gone, [C] my brother's out [G] huntin' in the mountains _ _ _
_ [C] Big John's been drinkin' since the river took [G] _ Emmylou
So _ _ _ [C] the powers that be left me here to do [Bm] the pagin'
_ _ [C] _ _
_ [Bm] And I just turned [C] 22 _
_ [Bm] I was wonderin' what [G] to do
_ And the [Bm] closer they got, [Am] _ _
[C] the speedin' [D] they slow _ _ _

_ _ _ _ Daddy's rifle in [C] my hand felt [G] reassuring
He _ _ _ [C] told me red means run, son, numbers add up to [G] nothin' _ _ _ _
_ When [C] the first shot hit, the gun fired [Bm] for me
_ [C] _ _
_ _ [Bm] Raised my rifle to [C] my eye
_ [Bm] Never stopped to [C] wonder why
_ [Bm] Then I saw black [C] and my face flash in the [D] _ sky _

_ _ _ _ _ me [C] from the power of [G] the fader _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] Cover me with the thought that pulled [G] the trigger _ _ _
_ _ [C] Just think of me as one you never [Bm] figured
_ _ [C] _
_ _ [G] _ [Bm] Fade [Em] away [C] so young
_ _ [Bm] So much left [C]
undone
