ray wylie hubbard – dangerous spirits lyrics

dangerous spirits are at large in the hills
[d]
cold dark wings is in the air
[d] [g]
some have been lost to the shadows within the light
[d] [a] [d]
some are beyond the reach of prayer

[d]
i myself have stood with the ravens in the rain
[d]
a darkness in my heart and a younger face
[d] [g]
and with a stolen chestnut mare and a blue navy colt
[d] [a] [d]
i was above the law outside the bounds of grace

[d]
with a pistol in my hand and no kindness in my eyes
[d]
i wore these as a badge high in fashion
[d] [g]
but i had to walk away from the powder and the flame
[d] [a] [d]
the reason was not fear it was comp-ssion
[d]
i let my revolver fall from my hands
[d]
and put on the coat of a pilgrim
[d] [g]
now there is more to me than between my hat and boots
[d] [a] [d]
and the treasures i own no one can steal them

solo

[d]
now i stand in the dirt with the dust on my boots
[d]
the road that i choose is less travelled
[d] [g]
the flag that i follow is full of holes and torn
[d] [a] [d]
and its sacred threads can never be unraveled

[d]
and i have met a woman who is in my breath and bones
[d]
she’s at ease in either calico or leather
[d] [g]
she prays to a god who does not hurt or hate
[d] [a] [d]
she wears earrings of crystals and feathers

solo

[d]
since i left my revolver in the dirt
[d]
i have known peace since that hour
[d] [g]
and now i see my life p-ssing before my eyes
[d] [a] [d]
as a petal falling from a flower

[d]
ah but there are dangerous spirits are at large in the hills
[d]
cold dark wings is in the air
[d] [g]
some have been lost to the shadows within the light
[d] [a] [d]
some are beyond the reach of prayer

outro solo
