[Intro]
D  D/A  D  D/A 
D  D/A  D  D/C

[Verse 1]
             D       D/A     D   D/C
He walks the runways of the moon
       D        D/A     D     
And he fears he runs condemned
 D/C         D      D/A    D    D/C
Condemned to wander out of rooms
   D                 G       G/D   G  G/F
Of loved ones and of friends
  G        G/D      G        G/F
I walk his phantom footprints
       G         G/D      G    G/D
From a cloudless point of view
    G        G/D    G        G/D
Oh, can't he find a place to stand
   G       G/F        C
To catch a glimpse of you

[Chorus]
C    E    Am
You, you, you
G    F           D/F#
Just you darlin'
C    E    Am
You, you, you
G    F           D/F#   D
Just you darlin', oh

[Verse 2]
             D        D/A        D    D/C
For when the sunlight caught his eye
   D         D/A     D    D/C
It burned it to the bone
           D     D/A     D    D/C
It was his grave-will to die
   D      G    G/D  G  G/F
To wander off alone
   G     G/D    G       G/F
Of every frozen footstep
       G        G/D  G     G/D
Frozen bootless or a shoe
       G        G/D       G      G/D
Does a choke on dust turn inside out
   G       G/F        C
To catch a glimpse of you

[Chorus]
C    E    Am
You, you, you
G    F           D/F#
Just you darlin'
C    E    Am
You, you, you
G    F
Just you darlin'

[Bridge]
Dm                  F
 He's a rebel and a hustler
  Dm             F
A calm man and a friend of mine
Dm       F              G
  He bravely leaves the light
Em               G
    And mumbling on
Em            G
  His knees abhor
    C                D   D7
The red hot rocks of ni——ght

[Verse 3]
             G      G/D     G    G/F
Finds all forgivnesses with Him
    G         G/D       G      G/F
Who brings us light and life
    G        G/D      G     G/D
Oh, sing him homeward hymn
     G        G/F         C
Rest peaceful where him a-lie

[Outro]
     C    E    Am
With you, you, you
G    F           D/F#
Just you darlin'
     C    E    Am
With you, you, you
G    F           D/F#
Just you darlin'
     C    E    Am
With you, you, you
G    F           D/F#
Just you darlin'
     C    E    Am
With you, you, you
G    F           D/F#
Just you darlin', oh
D
Oh, oooh, oh, oooh ...
