G5                               C5              G5
lately in the evening I've been thinking on my life
                                  D5 
and it cast a gloomy shadow on my soul
G5                                       C5                  G5
I've got weakness for the flesh and for powdered speedin' death
                       D5             G5
and my heart is aching for my desert home

G5                                  C5                G5
there are women in my life who get swallowed by the night
                                   D5
they are faceless to me as I am to them

G5                                 C5                  G5 
I am troubled in the night by the thoughts of my own life
                       D5               G5 
and my spirits sinking and my faith is thin

           C5                              G5
I'd rather be in your de Valley where the fuel they make is fine
                     C5                  D5
where sleep can't ever seem to catch me anywhere

       G5                              C5              G5          
so the sun begins to rise up now but still I see no lights
                                        D5
and I fear the raise of hope will never shine

          G5                          C5              G5       
the devil he is creeping near and he whispers in my ear 
                         D5          G5  
telling me he'll give me all that I desire

so the sun begins to rise up now but still I see no lights
                                        D5

          G5                          C5              G5

                         D5          G5  
telling me he'll give me all that I desire
                         D5          G5  
telling me he'll give me all that I desire
