EmTonight (022000@1)I'll shave the mountain
                          AmI'll (x02210@1)cut the hearts from pharaohs
B7I (x21202@1)pull the road off of the rise
tear the memories from my eyes
                            Emand (022000@1)in the morning I'll be gone

Em (022000@1)              
I drink 1000 shipwrecks
                         Amtonight (x02210@1)I'll steal your paychecks
B7I (x21202@1)paint the sheets across my bed
the birds will all fly from my head
                            Emand (022000@1)in the morning I'll be gone

Em (022000@1)                           Amtake (x02210@1)every dream that's breathing
  D(7?)                           G(7?)
find every boot that's leaving
(C)  B7
shoot all the lights in the cafe
  B7 (x21202@1)                      Emand (022000@1)in the morning I'll be gone

EmI (022000@1)bet 1000 dollars
  Em (022000@1)           AmI (x02210@1)have a French companion
  B7I (x21202@1)tie myself below the deck
I pull the rope around my neck
                   (3-2-0)* Emand (022000@1)in the morning I'll be gone

Em (022000@1)                 Amit (x02210@1)takes a life to win her
  D(7?)             Gthere (320003@1)is a drum of bourbon
  G (320003@1)          B7800 (x21202@1)pounds of nitro
 B7 (x21202@1)                         Emhis (022000@1)boots are thunder as he plays

Em (022000@1)                Amthere (x02210@1)is a stone inside it
 D(7?)                     Gtonight (320003@1)his bones will ride it
 G (320003@1)                      B7I'll (x21202@1)need a tent to hide it
 B7 (x21202@1)              (3-2-0)* Emand (022000@1)in the morning I'll be gone
and in the morning I'll be gone
and in the morning I'll be gone

*(3-2-0 on the 6th string) - cool effect I have seen from a cover on youtube!
