Intro

   
   

Verse

They say that no man is an island.
And good things come to those who wait.
But things I hear are there just to remind me.
Every dog will have his day.
The spirits, they intoxicate me.
I watched them infiltrate my soul.
They tried to say its too late for me.
Tell my guns I'm coming home.

Chorus

I swear I'm gonna live forever.
Tell my maker he can wait.
I'm riding somewhere south of heaven. 
Heading back to Santa Fe.
Its Judgement Day in Santa Fe.

Verse

Once I was promised absoulution.
There's only one solution for my sins.
You gotta face your ghosts and know with no illusions
That only one of you is going home again.
And I blame this world for making a good man evil.
And its this world that can drive a good man mad.
And its this world that turns a killer into a hero.  
Well I blame this world for making a good man bad.

Chorus

Now I ain't gettin into heaven.
If the devil has his way.
I swear I'm gonna live forever. 
Heading back to Santa Fe.
Got debts to pay in Santa Fe.
Its judgement day in Santa Fe.
Lord have mercy

Solo

      
      

Bridge

So I save a prayer when I need it most
To the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost.
And sign it from a sinner with no name.
When I meet my maker will he close the book
On the hearts I broke and the lives I took?
Will he walk away 'cause my soul's too late to save?

Chorus

Now I ain't gettin' into heaven.
If the devil has his way.
I swear I'm gonna live forever. 
Heading back to Santa Fe.
I got debts to pay in Santa Fe.
Its judgement day in Santa Fe.
