_ _ _ _ _ Look out, mama, [C] there's a white boat comin' up the [G] river. _
_ _ _ _ It's a big red beacon and a flag in a man's [G] hand. _
_ _ _ I [C] think you'd better call John.
He's going up right there, he's here [Bm] to deliver. _ _
[C] Man, _ and [B] it's less than a [C] mile away.
_ _ [B] I hope it ain't [C] hard to say.
He's got [B] numbers on his [C] side and a gun.
He's [D] makin' me pay.

_ _ _ _ _ Daddy's gone, [C] my brother's out huntin' [G] in the mountains. _

[G] _ _ So [C] the powers that be left me here to do [Bm] the thinkin'. _
[C] _ _ _ [B] And I just turned [C] 22.

[G] _ _ _ _ Daddy's rifle in [C] my hand felt _ reassuring. _ _
_ _ He told [C] me red means run, son.
Numbers add up to [G] _ [D] nothin'. _
[G] _ _ _ [C] The first shot hit the dot.
I saw [B] it comin' [Bm] in. _ _
[C] _ _ He's [Bm] my rifle to my [C] eye.
I [Bm] never stopped to wonder [C] why.
_ [B] Then I saw black, [C] a face flashed in [D] the sky. _ _

[C] _ _ _ [Bm] Soon I'll fade away [C] so young.
_ [B] So much left [C] undone.
