[Verse]
E A
I was looking for America in a western movie
C#m A
Saw a young gunslinger with something to prove
F#m
I came looking ... like anybody else
C#m
I came searching ... like anybody else
D B
Looking for that golden calf
E A
And I came shooting for the stars like any young blood
C#m A
Found a fat cat city and a crooked judge
F#m
I killed anything ... standing in my path
C#m
I killed anything ... till I laid my hands
D B
Laid 'em on that golden calf
[Chorus]
E C#m
Now it's our last stand in open country
E C#m
This is my last chance to be with you
A C#m
This is the last dance for this kind of man
A B E
I'm still looking for something to prove
[Verse]
E A
I came around full circle, aged like an old dog
C#m A
Looking at them young bucks, just green as frogs
F#m
But I ain't laying back, no time to laugh
C#m
I aint laying back, there's a new kid coming,
D B
Gunning for that golden calf
E A
I was looking for America in a western movie
C#m A
Saw young pike bishop striding through aqua verde
F#m
He was headed down that dusty path
C#m
He was headed down to that blood bath
D B
Chasing down that golden calf
[Chorus]
E C#m
Now it's our last stand in open country
E C#m
This is my last chance to be with you
A C#m
This is the last dance for this kind of man
A B E
I'm still looking for something to prove
[Bridge]
F#m G#m
But there's always someone faster
A C#m
Someone quicker on the draw
F#m G#m A B
Somebody with a hunger closing in, someone younger
F#m A B
Stepping up to be the next outlaw
[Chorus]
E C#m
Now it's our last stand in open country
E C#m
This is my last chance to be with you
A C#m
This is the last dance for this kind of man
A B C#m
And I'm still looking for something to prove
A B E
Yeah, I'm still looking for something ... to prove
