Intro:
Am7 G/A, Dm7 (x4)
Verse 1:
Am G/A Dm7 Am G/A Dm7
James, come on home.
Am G/A Dm7
You've been gone too long, baby.
Am G/A Dm7 Am G/A Dm7
We can't let our hero die a-lone.
Am G/A Dm7
We miss you day and night,
Am G/A Dm7
You left town to live by the rifle.
Am G/A Dm7
You left us to fight,
E7
But it just ain't right, to take away the light.
Bridge 1:
F C G Dm
Remember Genie, from the ca-sino?
F C G
She's still a-waiting, in that big brass bed.
F C G Dm
The boys from your gang, are knocking whisky back,
F C G
'Till they get out of hand and wish they were dead.
F Dm C G Fmaj7
They're only lonely for the life that they led, with their old friends.
Chorus 1:

James, are you selling your soul to a cold gun?
Interlude:

Verse 2:
Am G/A Dm7 Am G/A Dm7
Where, lies your heart?
Am G/A Dm7
It's not there in the buckskin baby.
Am G/A Dm7
It's not there in the gin,
Am G/A Dm7
That makes you laugh long and loud.
Am G/A Dm7
You're a coward, James;
Am G/A Dm7
You're running a-way from humanity.
Am G/A Dm7
You're running out on reality.
E7
It won't be funny, when they rat-a-tat-tat you down.
