A                             Bm
You took it in your stride to run away and hide
     C#m             F#m            D                A      E
Thru all the pain of battle and the breaking of your pride.
A                                Bm
Sweet Billy James's been asking where you've gone.
     C#m          F#m                    D             A      E
It's been so many years now since you've taken off the gun.
          A                           Bm
Well, the grass is getting dry and it seems your name they're calling;
     C#m             F#m            D                A      E
The rain, it hasn't fallen, only tears shed from our eyes.
A                             Bm
They say there isn't rain in the hills of West Virginia,
     C#m             F#m            D                A      E
But dying isn't in ya but the rhinestone bears your name.
           A                          Bm
You're the father of your child but your mind just seems to wander,
     C#m             F#m            D                A      E
Let no man hold you under while your heart is running wild.
A                             Bm
And I've searched so many towns and I've roamed so many places,
     C#m             F#m            D                A      E
I've seen so many faces but I've never known your own.
Well, there's gonna be a day when your drinking wine is through now,
And the people close to you now will have you here to stay.
E
