Introdução: G
C Em
Well I live in the canyon where the old coyotes howl
F G
They come down from the mountains and the dogs begin to growl
Am F
And they meet up in the darkness, and they fight until the death
C Am G F
When the morning sun is rising I will bury who is left
F C G
They call me Canyon Joe
C
And I stay in the cabin
Em
Where I work my hands to bleed
F
Swing the hammer to the nail
G
And I swing the axe onto the tree
Am
And I once cleared these woods
F
-yeah there used to be a path
C Am G F
And now the trees have overgrown just to prove that nothing lasts
F C G
They call me Canyon Joe
C
The old man went crazy
Em
He lives high up on the ridge
F G
He used to tell me all the stories of the church house and the bridge
Am
But the bridge, she washed away your sin
F
The church house- it got burned
C Am G F
'Cause this world has gone angry and some people never learn
F C G
They call me Canyon Joe
C
And I once loved a woman
Em
Georgia was her name
F G
And we met out in the foothills of the Ozark Mountain Range
Am
And we saw the world together
F
And these sparks that we love most
C Am
She still comes to me in dreams
G F
I am still haunted with her ghost
F C G(x3)
They call me Canyon Joe
C
And all my thoughts are heavy
Em
My beard, it has grown long
F G
And I search the face of six-strings for an old familiar song
Am F
But the chords, they all sound foreign like the places I have been
C Am
So I will close my eyes to sleep
G F
Tomorrow I will try again
F C G
They call me Canyon Joe
F C G
They call me Canyon Joe
F C G(x3)
