Fastest Gun Live chords by 
Tony Douglas
N/A•
Verse 1
C
G
C
I was just 18,
G
C
my dad bought me a gun.
F
G
He handed it to me and he said, son,
C
F
soon to manhood you'll arrive.
C
If you want to stay alive,
then you'll have to learn
G
C
just how the West was won.
Now I practiced
G
C
as I watched the years go by
Soon the age of twenty
F
G
-one was drawing nigh
C
G
F
An d my teacher told me, son,
C
your speed is second just to one
Cause my daddy was the
G
Am
fastest gun alive
C
G
C
Yes, my daddy was the fastest gun alive
Then one day he said,
G
C
I'm go ing to Abilene
I'm no good,
F
C
I'm an outlaw and I'm mean
F
You can take care of your mob
C
cause you've got a lightning draw
Next to me you're the
G
C
fastest gun I've seen
G
It wasn't long before the
C
news was far and near
How my daddy filled old
F
G
Abilene with fear
F
There were killings in the street,
C
people dying at his feet
Guess that shooting people down
G
Am
he'd done his share
C
Guess that shooting people down
G
C
he'd done his share
They said my daddy was
G
C
a murder -crazy fiend
F
C
So I saddled up and rode to Abilene
F
I got there late one night
C
and the town was filled with fright
My daddy was the fastest
G
gun they'd ever seen
C
G
They said my dad had killed
C
a sheriff yesterday
When I asked who took his place,
F
C
no one would say
F
They said they were looking
C
for another gun
to wear the scar
They wanted someone
G
Am
who could make my day pay
They wanted someone
C
G
C
who could make my daddy pay
G
I pinned on the star and thought
C
I'll never know
Unless my daddy'd made
F
C
my hate for outlaws grow
F
C
I guess inside I knew just what I had to do
G
C
I had to shoot and kill the man that I love so
My daddy heard they had a
G
C
new lawman in town
And he vowed that he would
F
C
try to shoot me down
F
I was hoping all along
C
when I got there he'd be gone
G
Am
As I tied my gun and started on my round
C
G
As I tied my gun and started on my round
C
Then I turned and walked
G
C
slowly up the street
Where I knew my dad
F
C
and I were sure to meet
F
Then I saw him waiting there
C
like a man without a care
G
And he said, son, you know I'm fast,
C
I can't be beat
G
Then I told him that I guessed
C
I'd have to try
Even though it meant that
F
C
one of us must die
F
Without passion, he said, son,
C
when I count, go for your gun
G
You'd better not be later on the ground,
Am
you'll lie
C
G
You'd better not be later on the ground,
C
you'll lie
When the smoke had cleared,
G
C
he lay there in the sand
G
I knelt down beside him
C
F
C
and I took his hand
F
Then he whispered, thank you son,
C
I thought you would never come
G
C
This makes you the very fastest in the land
G
I picked up my daddy's gun
C
just as he died
Then I breached it and I
F
C
don't believe my eyes
F
Nor the story made it tell
In the chamber, not a shell
A
Am
C
My daddy knew he was
the fastest gun alive
Yes, daddy knew he was
C
the fastest gun alive

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.”
Got me back into playing
Tuliketsune
“I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad
“Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!”
Very reliable tuner

This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.”
Great to tune and play
