Canyon of the Deadby Wayne Fiala
[Am]A rough Cowboy came riding in, [C]on a weary horse. His [Am]boots were burned, his clothes were
singed, as was the [C]mane upon his [Am]horse.He bowed his head for a moment, then his [C]feet hit
the ground.He [Am]walked into the tavern,[E]didn't make a [Am]sound.He ordered up a bottle,
[C]then he turned around.In a loud [Am]gruff voice he said: "All you [E]sinners gather-[Am]round".
Said, [C]I just met the Devil and,I heard God's voice to[Am]day.If you don't wanna loose your
soul's, better [E]listen hard, God told me what to [Am]say.
[Am]I was riding on my horse,through the "[C]Canyon of The Dead". [Am]All at once a firey storm
came up, the [C]sky was blazin-red.[Am]It looked as though the gates of hell had opened, [E]up the
earth a[Am]head.
(Spoken)>> Then I saw the Devil, staring at me hard, through the fire and brimstone,
in the "Canyon of The Dead". His head and chest looked like a man on fire, who had
gone insane. His body was his steed and serpents was his mane. He was snortin sulpher,
and his eyes were Demon red. He laughed out-loud: you're mine! I finally got-ya here
in the "Canyon of The Dead". He shouted with a firey voice, on my list is your name!
Now, I'll burn your flesh, your horses too,
(Sing)>>and [E]both your soul's I'll [Am]claim! I unsheathed my rifle, drew my gun,
I [C]had him in my sights. I [Am]shouted come and get me Devil! I ain't [E]goin without a [Am]fight.
(Spoken)>> The Devil charged, I fired my guns till all my rounds were spent. I knew I didn't
have a chance with empty guns, so I turned to run.
[Am]Now I faced the devil's army,[C]they were every where. Ten [Am]thousand Demons on the ground,
ten thousand [C]more was in the [Am]air.The devel's demons pinned me in, now [C]Satan's gonna win.
And I'll for-[Am]ever pay for my sins, in the "[E]Canyon of The [Am]Dead".
(Spoken)>> I turned and faced the Devil. Then I bowed my head and prayed:
Dear God, please forgive me, for all the mistakes I've made. I know I'm not a perfect man,
unworthy to even speek your name. But give me one more chance, if you can? I'll change
my ways, do what you ask, and be a better man.
(Sing)>> [Am]I raised my head prepared to die.But, the [C]Devil he was gone.Then I [Am]heard a voice
from heaven say:I [E]heard your prayer my [Am]son.(Spoken)>> Now, remember all you've seen
and heard. And, from this day on, where ever your horse takes you; tell this story, with your
guitar and a song.
(Sing)>> [Am]Now, you've heard my story.I've [C]told you what God said.So, [Am]sinners change your ways,
or for-[E]ever ride your horse, in the "Canyon of The [Am]Dead".
