Man Walks Among Us chords by Marty Robbins

Man Walks Among Us Marty Robbins 1963

C                         Am
Warm are the winds on the desert
C                      Em
A whirlwind is dancing around
  F          Em             Dm            C
I stopped to survey all the beauty that's here
       Am                          F      G
When a shadow moves out across the ground

        C                   Am
It's an eagle that circles above me
       C                             Em
And he screams to his friends on the hill
F          Em       Dm         C
Stay close together move not a feather
Dm        Em          Dm       Em
Man walks among us be still be still
Dm        G7          C
Man walks among us be still

                       Am
Everything hides but I see them
     C                     Em
I've spotted an old mother quail
  F              Em          Dm            C
I look close and see looking right back at me
    Am                    F    G
The eyes of a young cottontail

  C            Am
I see a coyote sneaking as he crawls
                         Em
Through the brush on the hill
        F             Em        Dm           C
And the eagle screams down stay close to the ground
Dm        Em          Dm       Em
Man walks among us be still be still
Dm        G7          C
Man walks among us be still

F                       Em
Twenty feet high in the side of a Cactus
F                      C
I see a hole where the Butcher bird stays
   F                           Em
If mortals could choose and if Heaven should ask us
D7                             G7
Here's where I'd want to spend all of my days

C                         Am
Soon will be gone all the desert
C                      Em
Cities will cover each hill
  F             Em   Dm       C
Today will just be a fond memory
Dm        Em          Dm       Em
Man walks among us be still be still
Dm         G7         C
Man walks among us be still
