G         D       G                       C
Beneath a western sky on the way to Santa Fe
  D             Am
I met up with a rounder
           G               C
claimed he rode with Jesse James
G               D        C
They robbed the Glendale Train

Verse 2

G                 D     G
As we crossed the Texas plains
G                       C
not a blessed word was said
D               Am                G                C
Till we reached Amarillo, then he raised his weary head
G         D                 C
He said, “Son, I’ll soon be dead”

Verse 3

G         D       G                                C
I have so much to tell you, but I’m left so little time
          D                Am
There’s a place out in the Badlands
G               C
About a two day ride
G           D       C
It’s not so hard to find

Bridge

D                             Am              C
Frank and Jesse holed up in a cave for forty days
D                               Am        G       C
Took all that they could carry, then hid the rest away
Bm                  C             G              D
Frank grew tired of living like a dog out on the run
Bm                  C           G                     D
and Jesse soon fell victim to a blast from Bob Ford’s gun
Am       C           D
Now I’m the only one

Verse 4

G            D        G                        C
His voice it faltered there and he soon passed away
  D                 Am
I laid him six feet under
     G               C
that hard West Texas clay
G        D      C
And then I rode away

Verse 5

G       D             G                                    C
I found everything he told me near the place they call Red Cloud
         D              Am
With the gold I found a letter
       G      D         C
when I read I cried out loud
               G     D        C
It said, “Your momma would be proud”

Verse 6

G            D       G
Some men are born to freedom
G                    C
While others come to fame
    D                    Am            G                C
And some will leave with nothing but a marker and their name
       G        D       C
In the end it’s all the same
