Introdução:
Am
In the dirty streets of Laredo
G Am
I saw you standing there
C Dm Am
With the moonlight shining on your cold black hair
Am
With the darkness all around me
G Am
I had trouble finding words
C Dm Am
So I whispered to myself and prayed you'd heard
Am
Well you must have been an angel
G Am
Who'd fallen from the skies
C
'Cause you turned to me
Dm Am
And I saw heaven in your eyes
Am
You were promised to another
G Am
Who'd wed your heart one day
C
So you woke one night
Dm Am
And softly slit that fate away
Am
When I found you in the crisp dawn of morning
G Am
With blood stains on your clothes
C
With your hands as tools
Dm Am
It was me your heart had chose
Am
And we went to seek your forgiveness
G Am
Where the red sand turns to clay
C
And we asked the lord
Dm Am
To wash your sins away
Am
Then I lost your love forever
G Am
Where the river meets the land
C Dm Am
When the swiftness swept your life out of my hands
Am
And I swear that I could hear laughter
G Am
As the heavens shook and cracked
C Dm
And I cursed the god who, in envy
Am
Took you back
Am
And my heart, it raged like the river
G Am
And my tears fell like the rain
C Dm
And I found myself, alone in darkness
Am
Once again
