Bm D G D
The mirage of Del Rio it was burning in his eyes
Bm D G A
And sleep had escaped him, too consumed by his pride
Bm D G D
Like the lonesome and high country he was lost in a haze
Bm D G D
And the thoughts of what he'd do if he unloaded all his rage
Bm
The man from Waco

Bm D G D
The city was almost silent as he passed the humming signs
Bm D G A
On the corner he heard laughter, made him afraid of what he'd find
Bm D G D
He pushed through the door, hypnotized by a sound
Bm D G D
Just then tears overcame him and his heart began to drown

The man from Waco

[Verso]
Bm D G D
It was there that he shot her while the lovers were embraced
Bm D G A
With the bullet he intended for the man who took his place
Bm D G D
He cried through the night as he made his escape
Bm D G D
But the rain that was fallin' could not wash away his shame
Bm

[Verso]
Bm D G D
On the banks of the Brazos, where the desert willow grows
Bm D G A
The clear shallow water just won't say all it knows
Bm D G D
A moment of burning anger can curse the living through the days
Bm D G D
You can let that river take you but you will never get away

The man from Waco
