He rode twelve days to the border

Where the claiber of a man

Was measured by the caliber

Of the pistol in his hand.
Bb
He lasted a week before the others
Gm
Saw that he was a man
from whom to take,
Eb
And on a Saturday night,

sank into the darkness.

And at that very hour,

Danny woke to the screams

Gm
And drank water through the night.

And drank water through the night.
His belly full, sun now hot,

He began to fel the rot

Work its way through his veins

And into the depths of his brain.

And kick with the craze.

Danny knew then

That the water in the well

Was unsafe.

The sins his father makes
Eb
He is bound in blood
Gm
To what he does

And all that he takes.
