Bm                                                                             F#m 
In from the coast, riding like the wind and racing the moon. 
Bm                                                                               F#m 
Shadows on the road, dancing and weaving like a crazy fool. 
Bm                                                                             F#m 
A horseman is coming, death in his heart for a rendezvous. 
A                                             A7       Bm        A                                            A7         Bm 
And where the traveller goes, nobody knows. Where the traveller goes, nobody knows

A candle in the night, fear on every face when he goes inside. 

(Maybe he's on the run) 
Bm                                                                                 F#m 
Get back from the bar, a stranger in town is a dangerous sight 

(maybe he's got a gun) 
Bm                                                                              F#m 
bring a bottle of whiskey landlord, I want to talk for a while 
A                                              A7             Bm 
And where the traveller goes, a cold wind blows. 
A                                          A7            Bm 
Where the traveller goes, a cold wind blows. 
Bm                                           A      G                                                                      Bm 
you can almost smell his revenge There is something in his eyes, something in his hands,  
A                                                                     G                                       F#7M        Bm 
And whoever he is after, it will be a disaster, this man is gonna take him to the very end. 
Bm                                                                                                       F#m 
Well, the landlord he trembled staring at a face he'd seen somewhere before. 

(you laid him in the ground) 
Bm                                                                                       F#m 
Suddenly remembered a killing, yes, a murder many years before. 

(t'was you that shot him down) 
Bm                                                                                    F#m 
He said to a boy, saddle me the black, I'll meet you down below, 
A                                                      A7         Bm     A                                              A7                 Bm 
with this man I must talk, with this traveller I go, with this man I must talk, yes with him I must go.
