Barry Chappells Dusty Tale

[Verse]
Dust blows deep down Tombstone way
Barry saw the devil's play
Leroy fell when daylight broke
Gunfire spoke and silence woke

[Verse 2]
Arms of iron meth-induced
Heart of shadow wild and loose
Woman's tears a siren's lie
Barry's mind spit bullets high

[Chorus]
Now he's locked in iron's hold
Desert sun and dreams grown cold
Leroy's ghost forever stays
Whispers haunt the prison days

[Verse 3]
Sheriff's boots on dusty ground
Echoed shots the only sound
Cards dealt hard in dead man's town
Barry's life now weighed and bound

[Bridge]
Fence of barbs a circle tight
Lost in time from wrong to right
Stars look down on weary souls
Life in prison's heavy toll

[Verse 4]
Tears of sorrow flow like streams
Fading fast those sunlit dreams
Barry stares at iron bars
Hands once quick now marked with scars
