[G]
[Bm]
In from the coast, riding like the wind [F#m] and racing the moon.
[Bm] Shadows on the road, dancing and weaving [F#m] like a crazy fool.
[Bm] A horseman is coming, deaf and it's hot [F#m] for a rendezvous.
[A]
Nobody [Bm] knows where [A] the traveler goes, nobody [Bm]
knows.
A candle in the night, fear on every face when [F#m] he goes inside.
[Bm] Get back from the bar, stranger in town is [F#m] a dangerous sight.
[Bm] Bring a bottle of whiskey, landlord, I want [F#m] to talk for a while.
And [A] where the traveler goes, a cold [Bm] wind blows.
And where [A] the traveler goes, a cold [Bm] wind blows.
There is something in his eyes, [A] something in his hands.
You [G] can almost smell his [Bm] revenge.
And whoever he is after, if well be desired, sir,
[G] this man is gonna [F#] take you to the very [Bm]
end.
[F#m] [Bm]
[Bm] Well, the landlord, he trembled, staring at a face he'd [F#m] seen somewhere before.
He laid him in the [Bm] ground, suddenly remembered a killing, yes, a murder [F#m] many years before.
[Bm] He said to a boy, saddle me the black, [F#m] I'll meet you down below.
[A] With this man I must talk, with the traveler [Bm] I'll go.
[A] With this man I must talk, yes, with him [Bm] I must go.
There is something in his eyes, [A] something in his hands.
[G] I can almost smell his [Bm] revenge.
And it's me that he's after, [A] if well be desired, sir,
[G] this man is gonna [F#] take me to the very [G] end.
And they were never [A] seen [Bm] again.
