Yellow lines in the dead of the nighAm
t, I was E
heading back out west.Am

Trying to keep my eyes open wide, I'Am
d gone E
days without any rest. Am
E
Saw him lying in the road looking bAm
ad about E
20 yards ahead. Am
E
You come back from a trip to the easAm
t but you E
don't come back from the dead. Am

Sure as hell he was dead as they coAm
me and he was E
already starting to smell. Am
E
Just a kid with his hair slicked bacAm
k and a knE
ife tucked into his belt. Am
E
Was he unforgiven or just tired of lAm
iving a liE
fe that never felt like his? Am
E
Though I was was worn and weary, I thought I'd Am
bury himE
and lay his soul to rest out in the Am
desert nigE
