American Remains by The Highwaymen
Highwaymen – American remains
Capo: on first fret (1)
Verse: 1 (Johnny Cash)
Am F
I am a shotgun rider for the San Jacinto line
C G
The desert is my brother, my skin is cracked and dry
Am F
I was riding on a folk coach, and everything was fine
C G
Til we took a shorter road to save some time
F C
The bandits only fired once, they shot me in the chest
C G
They may have wounded me, but they`ll never get the best
Am
Of better men, cause I`ll ride again.
Verse: 2 (Waylon Jennings)
Am F
I am a river gambler, I make a livin`dealin cards
C G
My clothes are smooth and honest, my heart is cold and hard
Am F
I was shufflin` for some delta boys on the boat for New Orelans
C G
I was the greatest shark they`d ever seen
F C
But the Captain bumped a sandbar, and an ace fell from my sleeve
C G
The threw me overboard as I swore I didn`t cheat
Am
But I could swim, and I`ll ride again
Chorus
C G
We are heros of the homeland, American remains
F Am
We live in many faces and answer many names
C G
We will not be forgotten, we won`t be left behind
F G
Our memories live on in mortal minds
Am
And poets pens, we`ll ride again
Verse: 3 (Willie Nelson)
Am F
I am a mid-west farmer, I make a livin` off the land
C G
I ride a John Deer tractor, I`am a liberated man
Am F
But the rain it hasn`t fallen, since the middle of July
C G
And if it don`t come soon my crops will die
F C
The bank man says he likes me, but there`s nothin`he can do
C G
He tells me that he`s comin`, but the clounds are comin` too
Am
He ain`t my friend, and I`ll ride again.
Verse: 4 (Kris Kristofferson)
Am F
I am an American Indian, my tribe is Cherokee
C G
My forefathers loves this land they left it here for me
Am F
But the white man came with boats and trains and dirty factories
C G
And poisoned my existence with his deeds
F C
Nature is our mother, we are suckling at her breast
C G
And he who trys to beat her down will lose her to the rest
Am
They`ll never win, I`ll ride again
Chorus:
C G
We are heros of the homeland, American remains
F Am
We live in many faces and answer many names
C G
We will not be forgotten, we won`t be left behind
F G
Our memories live on in mortal minds
Am
And poets pens we`ll ride again
