Today I saw the work of deaths ugly hand
Took the life of a man (took the life of a man)
Who lost his heart somewhere along the way

You stood so proud
(You were so tall!You were so tall!) [2x]
Like you stood for anything at all

The last thing you said I'll never forget
We could buried the hatchet and started again
But you threw it all away and took your pride to the grave [2x]

Won't feel sorry now that you're gone
Won't feel sorry now that ...
Won't feel sorry now that you're gone
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

You stood so proud
(You were so tall!You were so tall!) [2x]
Like you stood for anything at all
