_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ Look out, mama, there's [C] a rollie crow coming up [G] the river. _ _ _ _
She's [C] a big red beacon and a flag and a man on the [G] bed. _ _ _ _
You [C] better call John.
It don't look like they're here to [Bm] deliver the mail. _
_ And it's less than a mile [C] away. _
I [Bm] hope they didn't come [C] to stay.
I've [Bm] got numbers on my side and a gun.
It's making [D] me wait. _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Daddy is gone.
My brother's out hunting in the mountains. _ _ _ _
_ Big John's been drinking since the river took Emmylou. _ _ _ _ _
So the powers that be left me here to do [Bm] the thinking.
_ _ _ [C] _ _
_ [Bm] And I just turned [C] 22. _
I was wondering what [C] to do.

_ _ _ Daddy's rifle [C] in my hand felt [G] reassuring. _ _ _ _ _
They [C] told me red means run, son.
Numbers add [G] up to nothing. _ _ _ _
_ [C] The first shot hit the jock.
I [B] saw it coming.
_ _ [C] _ _
_ [Bm] Raised my rifle to [C] my eye.
_ [Bm] Never stopped to [C] wonder why.
_ _ [Bm] I saw a flash [C] in my face, flash in the [D] _ sky. _ _

_ _ Shelter me [C] from the power in [G] my finger. _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] Cover me with the bond that pulled [G] the trigger. _ _ _ _
_ [C] Just think of me as one _ [Bm] figure.
_ _ _ [C] _ _
Was [B] gonna be way so [C] young. _
_ [Bm] With so much left [C] undone. _
_ _ [Bm] Remember me to [C] my love.
_ [D] I'll miss her. _ _ _ _
