[Company]

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

[Frank]

There are 10 things you need to know

[Company]

Number 1!

[Frank]

We rode across the Hudson at dawn, my friend Henry Smith signed on as my-

[Company]

Number 2!

[Frank]

Hutchens arrived with his crew, some Orla Walsh, and a doctor that he knew

[Company]

Number 3!

[Frank]

I watched Hutchens examine the terrain. I wish I could tell you what was happening in his brain. This man just stood up for his wife, what am I doing?

[Company]

Most disputes die and no one shoots! Number 4!

[Frank]

Hutchens drew first position

Looking, to the world, like a man on a mission

His father was a soldier with a marksman's ability

The doctor turned around so he could have deniability

[Company]

5!

[Frank]

Now I didn't know this at the time, but were near the same spot where they died, is that why-

[Company]

6!

[Frank]

He examined his gun with such rigor?

I watched as he methodically fiddled with the trigger

[Company]

7!

[Frank]

Confession time? Here's what I got:

Anyone can tell you, I'm a terrible shot

[Company]

Number 8!

The last chance to negotiate

Send in your seconds, see if they can set the record straight

[Frank]

They won't teach you this in your classes, but look it up, Hutchens was wearing his glasses

Why, if not to take deadly aim?

It's him or me, the world will never be the same

I had only one thought before the slaughter:

It's not my time, I will not see my daughter

[Company]

Number 9!

[Frank]

Look him in the eye, aim no higher

Summon all the courage you require

Then count:

[Company]

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

Number 10 paces! Fire-

[Tommy]

I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory

Is this where it gets me?

On my feet, several feet ahead of me

I see it coming, do I run, or fire my gun, or let it be?

There is no beat, no melody

Frank, never a friend, now an enemy

Maybe the last the face I ever see

If I throw away my shot, it this how you'll remember me?

What if this bullet is my legacy?

Legacy!

What is a legacy?

It's planting seeds in a garden you never get to see

I wrote some notes at the beginning of a song Angel sung for me

America, you great unfinished symphony, you sent for us

You let us a make a difference

A place where even orphan immigrants

Can leave their fingerprints and rise up

I'm running out of time, I'm running and my time's up, wise up, eyes up

I catch a glimse of the other side

My father leads a soldiers chorus on the other side, my cousin's on the other side, she's with our mothers on the other side, Bobby's watching from the other side!

Teach me how to say goodbye

Rise up, rise up, rise up, Angel!

My love, take your time. I'll see you on the other side

Raise a glass to freedom

[Company]

He aims his pistol at the sky!

[Frank]

Wait!

I strike him right between his ribs

I walk toward him, but I am ushered away

They row him back across the Hudson

I get a drink

I hear wailing in the streets

Somebody tells me 'You'd better hide'

They say his poor wife Angel

Couldn't be by his side when he died

Death doesn't discriminate

Between the sinners and saints

It takes and it takes and it takes

History obliterates

In every picture it paints

It paints me and all my mistakes

When Tommy aimed for the sky, he may have been the first one to die

But I'm the one who payed for it

I survived but I paid for it

Now I'm the villain in your history

I was too young and blind to see

I should've known

I should've known

The world was wide enough for both Tommy and me

The world was wide enough for both Tommy and me
