Intro: Fmaj7AmGAmGAm
In from the coast
Em
Riding like the wind and racing the moon
Am
Shadows on the road
Em
Dancing and weaving like a crazy fool
AmA horseman is coming
Em
Death in his heart for a rendezvous
GG7Am
And where the traveller goes, nobody knows
GG7Am
Where the traveller goes, nobody knows
A candle in the night
Em
Fear on every face when he goes inside (maybe he's on the run)
Am
Get back from the bar
EmA stranger in town is a dangerous sight (maybe he's got a gun)
Am
"Bring a bottle of whiskey landlord
Em
I want to talk for a while"
GG7Am
And where the traveller goes, a cold wind blows
GG7Am
Where the traveller goes, a cold wind blows
Chorus:
G
There is something in his eyes, something in his hands
FAm
You can almost smell his revenge
G
And whoever he is after, it will be disaster
FEAm
This man is gonna take him to the very end
Well, the landlord he trembled
Em
Staring at a face he'd seen somewhere before (you laid him in the ground)
Am
Suddenly remembered
EmA killing, yes, a murder many years before (t'was you that shot him down)
Am
He said to a boy,
Em
"Saddle me the black, I'll meet you down below
GG7Am
"With this man I must talk, with this traveller I go
GG7Am
"With this man I must talk, yes with him I must go"
Chorus:
G
"There is something in his eyes, something in his hands
FAm
I can almost smell his revenge
G
And it's me that he's after, it will be disaster
FEAm
This man is gonna take me to the very end"
Fmaj7FGAm
And they were never seen again
