If You Killed a Man

If you killed a man, I'd help you hide away
Far as we can, we'd roam from place to place
Chase the sun as far as it could run
You left your name but you kept the gun
You'd hide the knives and the dead man's clothes
His bloody pack of cigarettes we'd surely smoke
Runnin' on the shoreline, tryin' to catch a boat
Sunsets and beaches and we're only half gone
It don't matter, you go to jail, we'll go together
Cowboy and Indian in matching striped sweaters
If I had to choose someone to watch me fade away
It'd be you, you and me every damn day
Don't know how you reach so deep but death grabbed by bones
Your son Caleb took the fingers you wanted to but never owned
Death held on tight and said "say your goodbyes"
Oh, I wish I coulda seen the way you looked him in eyes
It don't matter, you go to hell, we'll go together
I'll meet you when my skin is cold and I need a change of weather
Play with the devil, make him think we're sad
But we'll be together, how in the hell could that be bad?
It don't matter if you fade away, we'll gray together
And if you lose your mind, we'll look for it together
We'll keep every memory that slips right off your tongue
Of what it was to be wild, to be reckless, to be young
We'll go together, we'll go together, we'll go together
We'll go together
