[Verse]

Em       C
A big red sun
G                 D
Down by the riverside
Em          C
Just off the tracks
G                   D
Where Ben McCullen died
           Em
I found a gun...
Em           C
So there it was
G                   D
Still gifted with two rounds
Em               C
I never told no one
G                    D
At least well not 'til now
       Em
Not 'til now…

[Chorus]

G   D            Em7
It ain't no crime
               Cadd9               G
When you been pushed past the line
            D
We come and go without warning
    Em7
But we could be in the land of light
     Cadd9            Em
and joy come morning

[Verse]

Em       C
I had a job
G        D
I had a girl
Em                  C
But it's more than mean
G                        D
It's a cruel and wicked world
                         Em
It's a cruel and wicked world
                 C
So I did what I did
G                          D
And just like the whippoorwill
Em                      C
There's only one thing you can bring
G                    D
Up here to Heaven's Hill
                     Em
Up here to Heaven's Hill...

[Chorus]

G       D            Em7
No, It ain't no crime
               Cadd9               G
When you been pushed past the line
            D
We come and go without warning
    Em7                 D
But we could be in the land of light
     Cadd9           G
and joy come morning
          D                Em7
Oh Peter please understand
                      Cadd9            G
There's more to this blood on my hands
               D
These orphans break or get broke
       Em7            D
And it got so dark I couldn't see
     Cadd9         G
any other way home
