Verse 1
(C sharpdim) (A major) I plopped (G major) down in my easy
chair and turned on Channel 2
A bad gunslinger called Salty Sam
Was chasin' poor Sweet Sue
He trapped her in the old sawmill
And said with an evil laugh,
"If you don't give me the
deed to your ranch
I'll saw you all in half!"
And then he grabbed her

He tied her up (and then)
He turned on (G major) the (A major) bandsaw
(and then, and then!)

Commercial came on, so I got up
To get myself a snack
You should've seen what was goin' on
