joe ely - whenever kindness fails lyrics

Loading...

(robert earl keen, jr.)

capo 3rd frat!
intro: d bm d bm

verse 1:

d bm
crossed the desert in a dining car
d bm
in the spring of ’91
d bm
met some people drinkin’ at the bar,
a
they were laughin’, havin’ fun

told ’em that i hadn’t heard the joke
that was so hilarious
they said that i was just a dumb cowpoke
i didn’t want to make a fuss

chorus:

g a
so i shot them down, one by one
d g
and left them ‘long the rails
d
i only use my gun
a bm
whenever kindness fails

verse 2:

moon was in the sign of scorpio
the sun was at my back
i didn’t know how far the train would go
till the law would find my track

saw the brakeman and the engineer
drinking wine and eating brie
i asked them who would brake and who would steer
they started pointing back at me

chorus

solo: repeat chords in chorus

verse 3:

i only have a momment to explain
just a chance to let you know
when it’s time to board that train
there are 2 ways you can go.

you can ride the wind into the sun
feel a cool wind on your face
or you can laugh into a loaded gun
and you’ll likely lose your place

chorus:
yeah i shot them down, one by one
and left them ‘long the rails
i only use my gun
whenever kindness fails

i shot them down, one by one
and left them ‘long the rails
when i use my gun
that lonesome whistle wails

outro: d bm (repeat)
