EmPassing through the arms oCf satan
AmReaching for the hands of Cgod D
EmRobbing every mind for wisCdom
AmRunning so he won't get cCaught D
EmHe's outlawed by majorityC
AmBeen branded all his lifeC D
EmSome say that he's a sinnCer man
AmAs he rides from day to nCight D
EmHe's aD bad man, so they Csay
Living for hisAm love and liviDng frEmee
Riding swDift and secretly C
So he'll Ammiss the haDnging treEme
Wounded sDpirit on the wiCnd
Riding toAm his dream aDnd destiEmny
He's laughing at the wanted posters
Calling for his friends to see
Laughing aloud as he rides away
Kicking up the dust with speed
Time hands him down a pathway
And freedom is a horse he rides
Glory is a dream he's after
And fortune is his heart's delight
Riding swift and secretly
So he'll miss the hanging tree
Wounded spirit on the wind
Riding to his dream and destiny
