  THE OLD HOMESTEAD

  D

  D                   F

  Up and down the old homestead

  C         G6/B     Gm6/Bb               D

  The naked rider gallops through his head

                      F

  And although the moon isn't full

  C        G6/B          Gm6/Bb  D

  He still feels the pull

  

  

  D                          F

  Out on the floor where the cowboys dance

  C           G6/B     Gm6/Bb    D

  Approaching slowly at a glance

                 F

  Here comes the shadow of his stance

  C             G6/B    G6/Bb         D

  The reins are fallin' from his hands

  

  (same chords next 4 verses)

  - Shadow -

  "Why do you ride that crazy horse?"

  Inquires the shadow with little remorse

  Just then a priest comes down the stairs

  With a sack of dreams and old nightmares

  

  - Rider -

  "Who are you," the rider says

  "You dress in black but you talk like a Fed

  You spout ideas from books that you read

  Don't you care about this guy's head?"

  

  Just then the sound of hoofbeats was heard

  And the sky was darkened by a prehistoric bird

  Who flew between the unfulfilled moon

  And the naked rider, to a telephone booth.

  

  - Bird 1 -

  "We'll call the moon and see what's up

  I've got some change in this little tin cup

  We'll say that the shadow is growin' dim

  And we need some light to get back to him

  

  F/D                  G/D

  Just one call should do it all

  Bb/D                              C/D

  I'll carve this number on the wall

          D

  With my beak."

   

  D                     F         

  *Flying feathers were all around

  C            G6/B          Gm6/Bb     D

  *The air was filled with a ringy sound

                      F 

  *Two more birds the second and the third

  C                   G6/Bb                   D

  *Came down from the sky to deliver the word

  

  - Birds 2 and 3 -

  

  D                           F

  "Where have you been," they said to the first

  C                G6/B          Gm6/Bb         D

  "Get back to the clouds, we're dying of thirst

                             F

  There's not enough time to make that call

  C                G6/B   Gm6/Bb          D

  Let's ditch this rider, shadow and all."

  

  (Same chords next 2 verses)

  The sky was filled with the beautiful birds

  Still on the ground some crying was heard

  With his dime in his hand and his hand on the dial

  His cars were sweating as he forced a smile

  

  Hoofbeats beating across the range

  He rode through the night with his cup of change

  Tired and beaten he fell into slumber

  But up in the sky they still had his number

  

  D                   F

  Up and down the old homestead

  C         G6/B     Gm6/Bb               D

  The naked rider gallops through his head

                      F

  And although the moon isn't full

  C        G6/B          Gm6/Bb  

  He still feels the pull

                      F/D

  Still feels the pull

                      G/D

  Still feels the pull

                      Bb/D

  Still feels the pull

                      C/D   D

  Still feels the pull
