Troy Cassar-Daley - Wanted Man 

Intro Dm/A   Am   Dm/A x 2              

Verse 1
Dm/A
I came down from the country
Dm/A
On a long and lonesome road
Dm/A
I was running from some trouble
Dm/A
Over horses they say I stole
            G/A                       Dm/A
Never fired a shot in anger
            G/A                       Dm/A
There is no blood on my hands
            G/A                       Dm/A
I got a law man 20 miles behind me
            G/A                       Dm/A
Says I am a wanted man

 
Verse 2
Dm/A
Gonna ride on up the river
Dm/A
Till my trail is washed away
Dm/A
And if fate finds me tomorrow
Dm/A
Well that wont slow me down today
            G/A                       Dm/A
He is there on the ridge behind me
            G/A                       Dm/A
And I know this hidden land
            G/A                       Dm/A
And dreams that remind me
            G/A                       Dm/A
Ill always be a wanted man

Instrumental
Dm/A   Am   Dm/A x 2              

 
Verse 3 
Dm/A
From the wild New England ranges
Dm/A
That I learned when I was young
Dm/A
We were running stolen horses
Dm/A
With my older brother William
            G/A                       Dm/A
To the shoot-out in Uralla
            G/A                       Dm/A
Back in 1863
            G/A                       Dm/A
With my Mary and the others
            G/A                       Dm/A
Every mile he shadowed me

 
Verse 4
Dm/A
Up ahead in those mountains
Dm/A
There are cold dark memories
Dm/A
And I can see sweet Marys face
Dm/A
In the bark of the willow trees
            G/A                       Dm/A
There are stones in the river
            G/A                       Dm/A
Sing her name, and when I can
            G/A                       Dm/A
I sing it back in a whisper
            G/A                       Dm/A
Cause I am a wanted man

Instrumental
Dm/A   Am   Dm/A x 2              

 
Verse 5
Dm/A
Right now I got whiskey
Dm/A
And a borrowed thoroughbred
Dm/A
And another strung behind me
Dm/A
To keep me 20 miles ahead
            G/A                       Dm/A
But Im tired the sun is going
            G/A                       Dm/A
From this wild Kentucky plain
            G/A                       Dm/A
And I ride on forever knowing
            G/A                       Dm/A
Ill never see that girl again

 
Verse 6
Dm/A
Maryanne, Maryanne, 
Dm/A
If you were here with me today
Dm/A
Id ride us up oer the border
Dm/A
Cause Goa rivers where wed stay
            G/A                       Dm/A
But Im alone in this valley
            G/A                       Dm/A
My shadow has other plans
            G/A                       Dm/A
Im alone always willing
            G/A                       Dm/A
And I will die a wanted man
