[Verse 1]
EYellow lines in the dead of the nighAmt, I was Eheading back out west.Am ETrying to keep my eyes open wide, I'Amd gone Edays without any rest. Am ESaw him lying in the road looking bAmad about E20 yards ahead. Am EYou come back from a trip to the easAmt but you Edon't come back from the dead. Am

ESure as hell he was dead as they coAmme and he was Ealready starting to smell. Am EJust a kid with his hair slicked bacAmk and a knEife tucked into his belt. Am EWas he unforgiven or just tired of lAmiving a liEfe that never felt like his? Am EThough I was was worn and weary, I thought I'd Ambury him Eand lay his soul to rest out in the Amdesert nigEht.

EI laid him dG#own in a grAave in the sEand Eand he grabbed my G#arm with his Adead man's Ehand. EHe said: "I know I'm G#dead but I doAn't wanna lEie Ein a grave out hG#ere where the cAoyote's cEry.
EI stared right iG#nto the eAndless voEid Eand I ain't going bG#ack if I gAot any choEice. EI know how to lG#ive, I don't kAnow how to dEie Eand there ain't no tG#hrills in the afAterlifEe.
ESo lift me uG#p out of hAere my fEriend Eand I'll wander the G#night 'til the aAges eEnd." ELit by the mG#oon he walAked through the Esand Eand he waved goodG#bye with his dAead man's hEand.
