Ballad of a Dead Man Lyrics

INTRO: Bm Em (Bend 9th fret on b string then land on 9th fret g string)
Run little rabbit, cant break the habit for none
Shapes like a rocket and shoots like a pocket gun
Every mothers son has spent a lifetime on the run
One by one and two by two
Our hearts beat a rhythm true
Wave goodbye now baby blue
Bm G (strum once)
You're exploding like a star into the gloom
I thought I could shut you in
You said 'Baby let me out'
I thought that I could pick you up and roll you like a dice
There's hitchhikers thumbing on the verge of the lovers highway
But we just roll on by with the top down, the sun's out
I'm so glad when you came along you happened to be going my way
The wheels roll round and round
One by one and two by two
Our hearts beat a rhythm true
Wave goodbye now baby blue
You're exploding like a star in the room
I thought I could shut you in
You said "baby pull me out"
I thought that I could pick you up and roll you like a dice to get close to you,
I could feel it coming in, here they come
They're coming one by one coming two by two
They're coming one by one coming two by two
D F#m (on 9th fret)
Yeah, if I ever let you down
If anything should come to bleed you dry or cut you out
Don't turn me away
Yeah I never meant to spin you round
If anybody comes to do you harm or pin you down
I'll take your place
