[Verse 1]
Em D/F# G D/F#
My father once told me that death rides a blue pony
Em D/F# G C
As he's laughing just like a child
Em D/F# G D/F#
Spinning madly round and round again
Em D/F# G
On a carnival ride so damn wild
[Chorus]
C G
My brother and I never questioned nothing

Maybe we were just too damn young

He wore a noose around his neck that he tied on every morning
C D G
See you when the early morning meets the sun
[Verse 2]
Em D/F# G D/F#
And my best friend, he shot himself in his mother's house

He was due for his rest of his life in prison
Em D/F# G
For something that he'd done for money in his teens

People often ask me, if he was a good man

Or a bastard black lunged thief

Well all I can tell them is that he

He was free
