Widow Mountain Waltz Lyrics by Deep Chatham

Flood

2013

[Intro]
The man you loved has gone, my dear
He's waltzed into the wind
That train sounds off most every night
And whistles right through your skin
[Verse 1]
The nights they grow so long, so cold
The blankets, they were thin
She weeps by the door with a twelve gauge in hand
'Case he ever shows up again
[Verse 2]
She weeps by the door with a twelve gauge in hand
Dreams that he's there with her now
He helps dig his grave with his cold, callused hands
And whispers "I'm watchin' you now"
[Chorus]
'Cause thе man you loved has gone, my dear
Hе's waltzed into the wind
That train sounds off most every night
And whistles right through your skin
[Verse 3]
So batter her down the mountain, my love
Fight for what you hold so dear
These hills are alive with the lies that he told you
Right before he disappeared
[Verse 4]
So, sleep like you haven't in years, my love
Dream that he's right there beside
These nights grow so cold, and these nights grow so long
But your shotgun shoots sixteen men-wide
[Chorus]
'Cause the man you loved has gone, my dear
He's waltzed into the wind
That train sounds off most every night
And whistles right through your skin
[Verse 4]
So, sleep like you haven't in years, my love
Dream that he's right there beside
These nights grow so cold, and these nights grow so long
But your shotgun shoots sixteen men-wide
