Today I saw the work of death's ugly hand
Took this life off a man
Took the life of a man who lost his heart
Somewhere along the way
Along the way
Along

[Chorus]
You stood so proud
You stood so proud, you stood so proud
You were so tall
You were so tall, you were so tall
Like you stood for anything at all
The last thing you said I'll never forget
We could’ve buried the hatchet and started again
But you threw it all away
Threw it away
The last thing you said I'll never forget
We could’ve buried the hatchet and started again
But you threw it all away and took your pride to the grave

[Verse] x4
Won't feel sorry
Now that you're gone

Just a memory distant and vague
I do what I can to keep it that way
I am now the bastard son
Of a man with a death wish and a gun
[Chorus]

[Verse] x9
