[Verse 1]
[G]I was
staying at the Marriott
With [C]Jesus and John Wayne
I was [G]waiting for a chariot
They were [D]waiting for [G]a train

[Verse 2]
The sky [G]was full of carrion
"I'll [Em]take the mazuma"
Said [Asus4]Jesus to Marion
"That's [D]the 3:10 to Yuma
My [G]ride's here..."

[Verse 3]
The [G]Houston sky was changeless
We [C]galloped through bluebonnets
I was [G]wrestling with an angel
You were [D]working on a son[G]net

[Verse 4]
You said, [G]"I believe the seraphim
[Em]Will gather up my pinto
[A]And carry us away, Jim
[D]Across the San [G]Jacinto[C][D]
My [G]ride's here..."

[Verse 5]
[Em]Shelley and Keats were
[C]out in [G]the street
And [D]even Lord Byron was
[Em]leaving for Greece
While back at the Hilton,
[C]last but not [G]least
[D]Milton was holding his [C]sides

[Verse 6]
Saying, "You [G]bravos had
better be [D]ready to fight
Or we'll [C]never get out of
East [D]Texas tonight
The [Em]trail is long and the [A]river is wide
And my [D]ride's here"

[Verse 7]
I was [G]staying at the Westin
I was [C]playing to a draw
When [G]in walked Charlton Heston
With the [D]Tablets of the [G]Law

[Verse 8]
He said, "It's [G]still the Greatest Story"
I said, [Em]"Man I'd like to stay
But I'm [A]bound for glory
I'm [D]on my [G]way[C][D][G]
