          Gm                                                C
I spent a year out in the desert, I spent a year out in the sea
           Eb                          C
I spend my nights under the stars just dreaming of sleep
        Gm                                                  F
I still question where I’ve been, I don’t know where I will go
       Eb                              C                           Gm  F  Eb
I just look up to skies like there’s a sign I didn’t see, I didn’t know
C                      Gm       F  Eb           
Like there’s a sign I didn’t know

C
Lord (can you bring me back home)
            Gm                          F
I know I’ve lived a wicked life, I will never change my ways
      Eb                C
An unapologetic runaway until it’s my last day
Gm
Why is it so easy to light a match and watch?
        Eb
We were made of dried up timber
        C                        
We were made to turn to dust

Gm  F          C   Eb
Ooooo, Take me on down
Gm  F                        C             Eb     Gm
Ooooo, At the gallows it was mercy I had found
                                                                               
                                                 F
So I went back to my home and I burned it to the ground
         Eb                        C
An angel sat beside of me, we both watched it all fall down
       Gm                                                
“I’m a loner of a lover, I’m a lover of my ways,
             Eb                                C
So if you’re here to take me back, there ain’t nothing left to save.”

Gm  F            C    Eb
Ooooo, Burned it all down
Gm  F                        C             Eb
Ooooo, At the gallows it was mercy I had found
Gm  F          C   Eb
Ooooo, Take me on down
Gm  F                        C             Eb     Gm
Ooooo, At the gallows it was mercy I had found

                                                 F
I made it to the edge, there was nothing left to see
          Eb                        Cm
I lit one last cigarette, the angel sat beside of me
           Gm
I said, “I know you’ve got your job.”
                                F                  Eb
He said, “The grace that I have brung is that your death is gonna save you 
         C                     Cm
from the things you’re running from.”

Gm  F          C   Eb
Ooooo, Take me on down
Gm  F                        C             Eb
Ooooo, At the gallows it was mercy I had found
Gm  F          C   Eb
Ooooo, Take me on down
Gm  F                        C             Eb   Gm
Ooooo, At the gallows it was mercy I had found
F                          C             Eb   Gm
It’s at the gallows it was mercy I had found
F                          C             Eb   F   Gm
It’s at the gallows it was mercy I had found
