Chorus:
F C/G
Was it bitter then,with our backs against the wall
G C/G
Were we better men,then we'd ever been before
F C/G
Say if she came again today,would you still answer to the call
G C/G
Tell the truth my friend,don't it matter anymore
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/h/highwaymen/8258.html ]
Verse 1:
F C/G
We were simple men,by her side when she was born
G C/G
It was simple then,like the freedom when you fall
F C/G
We were smaller then you see,but soon we gathered like a storm
G C/G
They don't understand what that thunder meant at all
Verse 2:
F C/G
Was he crucified,was he done in by the law
G C/G
Are you satisfied that he'll never ride again
F C/G
Some people say he got away,they say he never died at all
G C/G
If that story's true,does it bother you my friend
Chorus.
