Shotgun Down the Avalanche (Live '88)

[Verse 1]

I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche

Mmm hmm

Tumbling and falling down the avalanche

Mmm hmm

[Chorus]

So be quiet tonight, the stars shine bright

On this mountain of new fallen snow

I will raise up my voice into the void

You have left me nowhere to go

[Verse 2]

And I love you so much and it's so bizarre

A mystery that goes on and on and on

And this is the best thing and the very most hard

And we don't get along

[Chorus]

'Cause after countless appeals we keep spinning our wheels

On this mountain of new fallen snow

And so I let go the catch and we are over the edge

You have left me nowhere to go

[Post-Chorus]

And I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche, yeah

[Verse 3]

Sometimes you make me lose my will to live

And just become a beacon for your soul

But the past is stronger than my will to forgive

Forgive you or myself, I don't know

[Verse 1]

And I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche

Oh

Tumbling and falling down the avalanche

Oh

[Chorus]

And so be quiet tonight, be sure to step lightly

On this mountain of new fallen snow

But I will raise up my voice into the void

You have left me nowhere to go

[Post-Chorus]

And I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche

Mmm

[Outro]

Thank you.
