Walkin' Jim Stoltz - Lone Lion Runs songtekst
Je score:
G C 1) On the high snow-topped mountain where the weathered pinyon pine G Em C D Where the mountain winds are born and the eagles feathers shines G C There's a creature crying in the night it echoes through the hills, G Em D G He looks down at the valley's lights then turns back to his kill. C G Em Chorus: Lone lion runs and the lone lion cries C Am C D He used to roam this whole land, but now he just gets by. C G Em Lone lion runs and the lone lion cries. C D G 2) Well, he took it all in stride when the West he knew had died He took to the lonesome places, swept there by the tide. He'd wonder at the sights of them sparklin' city lights But when he saw what we had done he just cried out at the night. (Chorus) 3) Now the subdivisions knocking on the mountain's every door And lots of folks are going where they never walked before. The king's domain is shrinking like a cloud torn in the sky, The writings on the wall that's why you'll hear him cry. (Final Chorus)
