[Intro | lone guitar picking | soft sigh] Now I sit... on this old porch swing... [Verse 1 | relaxed pace | intimate delivery] Retired deputy with these aching bones, Orphan past and the seeds I’ve sown, W H P D days are overthrown, New Eden sun lights the path I’ve known. [Chorus | Haiku style | 5-7-5 syllables | tender stacked vocals] Retired and free now Scars from New Eden remain Peace in the twilight [Verse 2 | gentle groove | warm tone] Grandkids laughing where the outlaws ran, Quiet evenings with my old tin can, Reflecting back on the life I spanned, From the bottom up to the badge I won. [Chorus | Haiku style | 5-7-5 syllables | tender stacked vocals] Retired and free now Scars from New Eden remain Peace in the twilight [Outro | fading guitar | whispered] These retired bones... still dream of the ride...
