Showdown At Big Sky - Robbie Robertson

Soldier of fortune

He’s a man of war

Just can’t remember

What he’s fighting for

Start a revolution

Right before your eyes

When you hear the big bang

Don’t be surprised

Showdown at big sky

Darkness at high noon

Showdown at big sky

That day may be soon

People, people

Can you hear the sound

From every village and every town

Let the bells ring out

Hear the bells ring in

Let the bells ring out

Keep them ringing, ringing

Can’t predict the future

Can’t forget the past

Feels like any moment

Could be the last

All you believers

Standing inside this room

Can’t you see it coming

Shooting out across the moon

Save this place

In the valley of tears

By the river of time

From weapons race

In the Book of David

In the holy night

When it’s laid to waste

It will be written

By the children of Eden

I said save this place

And the Holy Ghost

Showdown at big sky

Darkness at high noon

Showdown at big sky

That day may be soon

People, people

Can you hear the sound

From every village and every town

Let the bells ring out

Hear the bells ring in

Let the bells ring out

Keep them ringing, ringing

Save this place

In the valley of tears

By the river of time

From weapons race

In the Book of David

In the holy night

When it’s laid to waste

It will be written

By the children of Eden

I said save this place

And the Holy Ghost

Showdown at big sky

Darkness at high noon

Kiss tomorrow goodbye

That day could be soon

Give us strength

Give us wisdom

And give us tomorrow

Let the bells ring out

Hear the bells ring in

Let the bells ring out

Keep them ringing, ringing

Let the bells ring out

Hear the bells ring in

Let the bells ring out

Keep them ringing, ringing
