Intro: C F G
A G
Looking back over my shoulder wondering how I made it here
D G A
For all the smoking and the beer I couldn’t tell ya
A G
Looking back over my shoulder wasn’t all that long ago
D G A
There was nothing in this world I didn’t know
D Bm C D G
Then a bitter wind it came blowing in
D C
And my fears, more than any man could hide
D Bm C D G
Lord that bitter wind, don’t it chill you to the bone
C F G
When you’re runnin’ all alone in the night
Looking back over my shoulder how many miles has it been
I still hear the barking dogs and the shouts of men
Looking back over my shoulder I see things I should have done
And I’ve got a funny feeling that I’ve seen my final sunrise
And that bitter wind it came blowing in
Lord and all I wanted was to shout out loud
But a bitter wind carries any mournful sound
And the ones sure to make if they find me
Jam: C G C F G Em C (Repeat many times)
End of jam: C Am G C F Am G
Looking back over my shoulder got some miles on me now
There’s not much more I can do to keep my deal from going down
I’m tired in my bones and I’m starting to wonder
Can you really call it livin’ when your living on the run
And that bitter wind it came rolling in
And my fears Lord that any man could hide
Lord that bitter wind don’t it chill you to the bone
When your running all alone in the night
Outro: C Am G C F Am G
