[Intro]
C Em C Em
[Verse 1]
C Em
Alone in the dark, at the edge of the border
C Em
A coyote calling, the moon from the sky
F C
The bright shining eye, of a circling vulture
F C F C
And holes in the old fence line
[Verse 2]
C Em
Traveling far from the land of my father
C Em
The red cactus far in the weight of a crime
F C
Faraway barking, of dogs by the water
F C F C
And holes in the old fence line
[Chorus]
E Esus4 F C
Ahhhh Ahhhh Ahhhh, Angels, look away,
F C E7 Am
Unbar the pearly gates, Unblock the road
F
Down here at the border, the dogs are getting close
Am Em Am Em F C G Gsus4 G
[Verse 3]
C Em
And all of my dreams, a house by the river
C Em
A small bit of land, for my beautiful wife
F C
Something to show, for a lifetime of labor
F C F C
And holes in the old fence line
[Verse 4]
C Em
And I crawl in the dirt, to the edge of a country
C Em
I’m hammering hard, and the dust in my eyes
F C
I traded the night, for the last of my money
F C F C
And holes in the old fence line
[Chorus]
E Esus4 F C
Ahhhh Ahhhh Ahhhh, Angels, look away,
F C E7 Am
Unbar the pearly gates, Unblock the road
F
Down here at the border
F
Down here at the border, I’m just an animal
Am Em Am Em F C G Gsus4 G
[Verse 5]
C Em
Alone in the dark, at the edge of the border
C Em
A coyote calling, the moon from the sky
F C
The bright shining eye, of a circling vulture
F C
And holes in the old fence line
