At the end of my days When I'm called to go Into the open arms Of the Holy Ghost To have lived such a life As I have known Oh, fortune follow me That I'm afraid no more For my great mistakes I will surely pay I'm running low And the devil is on my trail When fates delivers me All I'll ask it for Is a place to rest and shelter O'er my soul

Oh, if I could spend my days Free from the prison of your gaze Then I could die a happy man Oh, if I could spend my days Free from the shadow of my name Then I could die a happy man And when I am released From this mortal load I'll take my leave But I don't wanna go When fates delivers me All I'll ask it for A place to rest and shelter O'er my soul

My Favourite song of ALL TIME! I always say this is the best song out of thepossible hundreds of thousands that I've heard in my lifetime. I think it's because it's so close to being spiritual in its notes and its content of the end of this life.

Fanning's words hold my soul as I pray that HIS never ending grace will.

@worldcoup Obviously never read a book in your life on the subject have you. Antidopean? Your method of insult is to call people (behind the safety of the computer screen I might add) a term referring to modern artists? Clap...Clap...Clap.

Corrupt Politics and Corrupt Constables, Caused Ned Kelly to rise up and fight the system in today's Politics he would be listed a terrorist. In my eyes I view these actions as those of a Hero.



I hate/ love the end of the movie. It is sad as hell and when the song starts and Ned says "Such is life" tears are coming to my eyes... and then it says "he was 25 years old" and I cant hold the tears back :'(
The movie may not be historically correct, but it shows how life has been for those poor Irishmen and it also gets the point of the sad story of the Kelly Gang.
R.I.P Ned, Dan, Steve, Joe and all those who fought with you! And also R.I.P. Heath
