Em  C  G  D 


Em               C 
My bones and my skin 
G                D 
Came from this dirt 
Em            C 
Same as the rocks 
    G             D 
The elk and the birds 
     Em          C 
That’s why I’m running 
     G            D 
That’s why I must go 
Em            C 
Because I am one with 
G            D 
That distant glow 


        C         G  D  Em 
Been a setting sun 
           C      G        D 
Since the day I first drew breath 
        C            G  D  Em 
I’m a setting sun 
    C        G      D      Em 
On fire and headed west 
    C       G      D 
On fire and headed west 


Em          C 
Most folks below 
G         D 
Don’t understand 
Em             C 
Cause I spend my days 
G             D 
Up in the high land 
Em           C 
But I don’t heed 
G              D 
Their scoffing and scorn 
Em                C 
Cause I’ve been this way 
G               D 
Since my first morn 


        C         G  D  Em 
Been a setting sun 
           C      G        D 
Since the day I first drew breath 
        C            G  D  Em 
I’m a setting sun 
    C        G      D   Em 
On fire and headed west 
    C       G      D 
On fire and headed west
