Dm  N.C.

Dm                                      C
In the southern part of Texas, east and west of El Paso
          Am                                  Dm
Where the mighty Franklin Mountains guard the trail to Mexico
                                      C
There's a new-made widow crying and a hearse a-rollin' slow
  Am                                 Dm   F
I guess the devil's passed this way again.

          Dm                               C
There's a lathered sorrel stallion running through the Joshua trees
      Am                                    Dm
And a young man in the saddle with his coat tails in the breeze.
                                          C
He's got a six gun on his right hip and a rifle at his knees
         Am                              Dm
And he's dealing in a game that he can't win.

Dm                        C
Poor Billy Bonney, you're only 21,
    Bb                                  F          Am
Pat Garrett's got your name on every bullet in his gun.
      Dm
Every notch you carve on your six gun
      C
Has a bloody tale to tell.
         Am  N.C.                                    Dm
You're a mile ahead of Garrett and a step outside of Hell.

Dm   C    Am   D

      Dm                                   C
Those fancy clothes you're wearin' and the women in your bed
      Am                          Dm
Can't take away the traces of the men that you've left dead
                                       C
As you ride across the badlands with a price upon your head
    Am                                 Dm   F
And now the Wheel of Fortune starts to turn.

     Dm                               C
Your reputation's grown 'til it's the biggest in the land
          Am                             Dm
And there ain't a lot of people left who want to call your hand
                                        C
And I guess you'll go down shootin' and like all branded men
         Am                                 Dm
When you shake hands with the devil you get burned.

Dm                        C

    Bb                                  F          Am

      Dm

      C
Has a bloody tale to tell.
         Am  N.C.                                    Dm
You're a mile ahead of Garrett and a step outside of Hell.
