Artist: Ben Caplan 


|Am . . . |Dm . . . | x4 

Am 
Waking up in a sea of enmity 
Dm 
Could this be my last recourse 
Am 
Will these men conspire to end me 
Dm 
Must I mount this feeble horse  
Am 
Ride into the southern distance 
Dm 
Leave behind this life I've led 
Am 
Shall I risk my own existence 
Dm 
O'er these words that must be said 

        Dm 
        Southbound as the wind blows past me 
        Am 
        To the town I've left behind 
        Dm 
        Will this plague of hate outlast me 
        E                C  G5    Am 
        Will I find some peace of mind 

|Am . . . |Dm . . . | x2 

Am 
Onwards cross the scorching sands 
Dm 
My sole companion left as dead 
Am 
Now on foot in foreign lands 
Dm 
And still that price upon my head 
Am 
The weeks cocoon, fly off as years 
Dm 
And still I wander wondering 
Am 
Has my life been worth the tears 
Dm 
And will my last breath mean a thing 

        Dm 
        Southbound as the wind blows past me 
        Am 
        To the town I've left behind 
        Dm 
        Will this plague of hate outlast me 
        E                C G5     Am 
        Will I find some peace of mind
