Verse 1
To the town (C major) of Agua Fría
rode a (A minor) stranger one fine day
Hardly (C major) spoke to folks around him
didn't have too much to say (A minor)
No one (F major) dared to ask his business,
no one (C major) dared to make a slip
For the stranger there among them
had a (A minor) big iron on his hip
(F major) Big iron on his (C major) hip

Verse 2
It was (C major) early in the morning
when he (A minor) rode into the town
He came (C major) riding from the south side
slowly lookin' all around (A minor)
He's an outlaw (F major) loose and running,
came the whisper (C major) from each lip
And he's here to do some business
with the (A minor) big iron on his hip
(F major) Big iron on his (C major) hip
Verse 3
In this town (C major) there lived an outlaw
by the (A minor) name of Texas Red
Many (C major) men had tried to take him
and that many men were (A minor) dead
He was (F major) vicious and a killer
though a (C major) youth of twenty four
And the notches on his pistol
numbered (A minor) one an nineteen more
(F major) One and nineteen (C major) more
Verse 4
Now the (C major) stranger started talking,
made it plain (A minor) to folks around
He was an Arizona (C major) ranger,
wouldn't be too long in town (A minor)
He came (F major) here to take an outlaw
back a (C major) live or maybe dead
And he said it didn't matter,
he was (A minor) after Texas Red
(F major) After Texas (C major) Red
Verse 5
The morning (C major) passed so quickly
it was (A minor) time for them to meet
It was (C major) twenty past eleven
when they walked out in the street (A minor)
Folks were (F major) watching from their windows,
every (C major) body held their breath
They knew this handsome ranger
was a (A minor) bout to meet his death
Was a (F major) bout to meet his (C major) death
Verse 6
There was (C major) forty feet between them
when they (A minor) stopped to make their play
And the swiftness (C major) of the ranger
is still talked about to (A minor) day
Texas Red (F major) had not cleared leather
when a (C major) bullet fairly ripped
And the ranger's aim was deadly
with the (A minor) big iron on his hip
The (F major) big iron on his (C major) hip
Outro 1
Big i- (F major) ron, big i- (C major) ron
When he tried to match the ranger
with the (A minor) big iron on his hip
The (F major) big iron on his (C major) hip
Big Iron
