Verse 1:
 
 C
I've been staying up all night
                 Am
I can't sleep a wink
 F             C
Life is almost over now
                    Am
Ain't got time to think
 G                  C
Ain't got time to think
 
Verse 2:
C
Hangman, take my wedding band
                      Am
And drop the floor on me
 F                    C
All it's worth ain't all it cost
                  Am
I'm aching to be free
 G             C
Aching to be free
 
Chorus:
 
 F
Time ain't a steady hand
                                   Am
He's loose and loaded by the Rio Grande
  F
Choose your words wisely, son
 C
You ain't got a knife, a gun
   G
Or any shot at hell to run
                       Am
Just keep up with the band
      G            F          Am
The crowd loves a martyr of a man

Verse 3:
 
C
I set out for glory, boys
                Am
I hang my head high
F                C
I can tell the story
                   Am
Like a bald eagle flies
 G           C
Bald eagle flies
 
Verse 4:
 
C
Always here and never near
           Am
A Colorado sky
 F                 C
You need years of holding tears
                      Am
To see through my disguise
 G                 C
See through my disguise
 
Chorus:
 
 F
Time ain't a steady hand
                                   Am
He's loose and loaded by the Rio Grande
  F
Choose your words wisely, son
 C
You ain't got a knife, a gun
   G
Or any shot at hell to run
                       Am
Just keep up with the band
      G            F          Am
The crowd loves a martyr of a man
