Verse 1:
Em        G                       D      D
 I scream down from the top of the canyon
Em         G                 D      D
 The coyote cryin is my only companion
Em   G              D     D

 I never needed a reason

Verse 2:
Em          G                   D                       Am
 I shot the record player cuz I didn't like what it was playin
Em            G                         D                     Am
 I robbed the earth from the moon and I did it cuz I was frustrated
Em                         G                          D                        Am
 I'll give it back if you give me your wallet and the gold chain watch you're wearin
Em                    G                             D                    Am
 You didn't take the world, you bought it, and you didn't take kindly to sharing

Verse 3:
Em               G                      D     D
 Well I cut the leash and I walked the leader
Em            G                      D     D
 I called the police and I shot the dealer
Em              G                    D      D
 I wrote on the walls and I became a teacher
Em          G                         D       D
 Well I got smarter and I cheated the cheater

Verse 4:
Em         G                              D                    Am
 I saw you reach into your pocket got you feelin just a little afraid
Em           G                       D                        Am
 Turn into a shell of a man when the barrel's pointed at your brain
Em        G                          D                        Am
 Replayin all my favorite memories I ever had the blessing to make
Em      G                    D                          Am
 Beyond dissatisfaction if I did to you what you did to me

 A coyote cryin is my only companion
Em   G              D     Am
 And I don't need a reason
Em G             D             Am             Em
 I never, never, never, never, never needed a reason
