Esus2 (xx2452@1)                       ELooking (022100@1)out for boulders and falls
Esus2 (xx2452@1)                      EA (022100@1)woman she watches from the top of the canyon

          Bsus4 (x24452@1) Esus2Hear (xx2452@1)my singin' call

Hurt myself bad on a run through the desert
Threw a shoe and took a bad fall
Long for the peace that the ancients bring me
Murmur of the lowlands shut my jaw
CHORUS

Everyone knows there's a price for the askin'
Some people buy themselves a doll
Help me sweet Jesus
I'm weary from the journey
I need to tell my brothers what I saw
CHORUS

NOTE: On the picking pattern, any given second string note can be
replaced by a first string note.  It is the sequence of first string
notes that makes this picking pattern challenging and interesting.
Listen to the record closely to hear this- the first string note is
relatively easy to pick out.
