_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C]
Just one crazy moment while the dice [Gm] are cast, [Cm] he looks into the future and remembers [C] what
his heart wonders what he's doing on this _ [Bb] battlefield.
[Cm] Draws to his shadow [F] impatient to crowd into [D]
knee.
[Dm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
In his wake he leaves scoffed, southern quirk in vain.
Smoke drips up behind him, [Dm] he is free I'm asked.
Free to run [A] before the [D] onslaught of a deadly foe.
[A] Leaving nothing but the [D]
village hardly leaving _ [G] home.
And it's far [Eb] too late [Ab] to turn _ _ unless it's [Am] to stone. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] Charging madly forward and crashed across the snow.
Which means my best trip ever on he goes.
Leaving [G] scores of madness [D] passive, faces [Dm] weary kind.
Cross the moor and make the headland, some left wayward blind.
In [C] the end [Eb] his footprints [Ab] _
extend _ as one [Am] single line. _ _ _ _ _ _

_ [Am] _ Persuaded to [Bb] charge at his enemy.
_ [C] Too [Db] late he knows [Bb] it is, too late now [G] to turn back. _
To survive [Bb] on a mortar.
[F] _ _ _ _
_ [Am] The post its uneasily [Bb] hiding his rear.
_ _ [Am] He's walking right into the [Bb] trap.
_ _ _ [Am] _ Surrounded with striking [Bb] _ freelancers. _ _
[C] I don't think he knows the way [G] to an understore.
_ [Bb]
[Cm] But when the knife is through his fingers.
He's [F] living [C] for days and days.
And he's a wanderer out of the pocket.
[Gm] _ [Cm] Leaving nothing behind but the tail [Gm] sail [F] pocket. _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ He will not be hosted, he will not be saved.
The parapluas can't stop him, for the future may.
_ Still he runs and [Dm] runs behind him in a time of treachery.
Still his life [A] remains a blunder [D] in an ice defeat.
The _ _ _ [D] _ _ [Dm] _
_ [A] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [A] truth _ _ [Gm] is [Ab]
time, _ unless it's [Am] too _ soon.
_ _ _ _ [C] _ [Eb] He's a _ _ wanderer. _ _ _
_ [D] _ When _ _ _ _ [D] he's done, _ holding nothing but the hold that's too long. _ _ _
[C] Leaving [C] nothing out of the cold for [Bb] a while.
