I am an only child, born of [D] the wild,
[A] [D] riddled to spend my time defending my land.
You are the only [A] one, [D] born in the sun,
[A] riddled to spend your [Dm] time defending my black horse.
Dead dog on the highway,
[A] [D] leading cats [A] are growling at me.
I [D] turn my lights on brighter,
I'm counting through the night ride.
And it's [C] one more [G] light [D] for the brave man,
[C] for the one more [G] thought [D] of me.
On the road to Athens,
I saw [D] a dead deer on the highway,
I slipped into a desert,
by prairie dogs and a rat.
I was running down on Queen Street,
I saw a woman on the sidewalk,
she was beat by a stranger.
Danger, danger, danger,
and [A] for more [G] light,
[D] for a safe man, for a man, for my [C] head,
for more [G] song,
[D] for the late night air,
for the skin man.

[C] [D]
I
[D] was on the road to Austin,
met a man on the highway,
[G] he sold me junk and conversation,
he [A] was wife and dirty [D] from the wet.
I saw darkness into darkness,
all the courage [A] of my journeys,
[D] makes it harder to be living.
He said it's a long road,
we all give it.
[C] And for more [D] light,
[G]
[D] for a safe man, for a man, for my [C] head,
for [G] more song,
for the late night air,
for the skin man.
I [A]
[D] am an only child,

[D] riddled to spend your time,

I went looking for a car,

I went looking for a girl,
found a man and his work.
I [A] went looking for a [D] car,
