Rider At The Gate Of Dawn Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]His last swig of whiskey,
he [G]rolls his last cigar[Am]ette
[G]The [Am]law'[C]s catching u[Cm]p,
but [C]they haven't caught [G]him [Am]yet[G][Am]
[D]Through the steep canyons
and the [C]desert he'll run
A [D]desperate outlaw tries to [C]outrun the sun
A rider [Cm]at t[C]he gates[G] of dawn[Am]
[G]Deep [Am]in his heart he knows[G]
he's lived the wrong [Am]way
[C]He fears the judgment and the
judgment is coming [G]today[Am]
He [D]knows too well this
could be [C]his last song
His [D]horse grown weary but he [C]presses on
The rider at the [G]gates of [Am]dawn
The [C]rider at the [G]gates of [Am]dawn
Some[Em]how the legend l[D]ives on
The [Em]wind blows the tune of a
[D]desperate man's song
An [Em]eerie melody of a [D]light gone [Em]wrong
The [C]rider at the [D]gates of [Am]dawn
The [C]rider at the [G]gates of [Am]dawn[G][Am][C][G][Am]
[D][C][D][C][G][Am][C]
[G][Am][G][Am][G][Am]
He'll try for the saddle,
he'll [G]reach for the gun at his [Am]sight
With a [C]sudden sharp pain,
he's [G]reached the end [Am]of his ride.
A fa[D]miliar old story,
a fa[C]miliar sad song.
[D]He begs forgiveness for the
[C]things he's done wrong.
The rider at the [G]gates of [Am]dawn
The [C]rider at [G]the gates of [Am]dawn
Some[Em]how the legend l[D]ives on
The [Em]wind blows a tune of a
des[D]perate man's song
An [Em]eerie melody of a [D]life gone [Em]wrong
Somehow the legend [D]lives on
The [Em]wind blows the tune of a
[D]desperate man's song
An [Em]eerie melody of a [D]life gone [Em]wrong
A [C]writer at [D]the gates of [Am]dawn
A [C]writer at the [G]gates of [Am]dawn
A [C]writer at [G]the gate, you [Am]know
[G]
