Verse 1
He was a (B minor)
legend in his country,
a (F sharp major) right mean son of a gun
He once (D major) fought for the Union
until (E minor) the war was won
As he was (C major) ridin' cross the prairie
with a (G major) mind full of hay
He went (D major) and used his army coat
to (A major) rob Gillette May
So he (B minor) teamed up with the young 'uns
(B major) and (F sharp major) called on his brother Frank
Oi, why (D major) not come along with me,
we're gonna (E minor) rob
old Freedman's bank
Despising (C major) all he came across,
an old (G major) man forgot his name
A (D major) ridin' mean old nasty
by the name (A major) of Jesse James
His (E minor) mom said goodbye Jesse,
so (G major) what you gonna do now
You gotta (D major) ride on out of Kansas
but you come (A major) back when you can
The law (E minor) they said is after you
and they'll (G major) surely shoot you down
You better (D major) make out for those
hills boy while there's (A major) time
Well, (B minor) everybody knows him,
so (F sharp major) he can't turn and run
Had his (D major) face on every one he fought
as time (E minor) was running out
When those (C major) bounty hunters
came for him
to (G major) Ma's place he would run
Cause (D major) if they could catch up with him,
they'd (E minor) surely shoot him (A major) dead
His (E minor) Ma said, goodbye Jesse,
so (G major) what you gonna do now?
You gotta (D major) ride on out of Kansas,
but you come (A major) back when you can
Lord, (E minor) they said he's after ya,
and (G major) he's gonna shoot ya down
You better (D major) make out for those hills, boy,
while it's (A major) time, all right (B minor) (F sharp major)
Come on, (D major) Jesse (A major) (C major) (G major)
(D major) (A major)
Oh, his (E minor) ma said goodbye, Jesse,
so (G major) what you gonna do now?
You got (D major) a lot on out of Kansas,
but you'll come (A major) back when you can
Oh, the (E minor) Lord, said, is after you
and they're (G major) gonna shoot you down
You better (D major) make up for those years,
boy, while there's (A major) time
Well, his (E minor) ma said, goodbye Jesse,
so (G major) what you gonna do now?
You gotta (D major) ride on out of Kansas,
but you come (A major) back when you can
And Lord, (E minor) he said, it's after you
and they're (G major) gonna shoot you down
You better (D major) make up for those years, boy,
while this (A major) time may come (E minor) (G major) (D major) (A major)
She said (E minor) good -bye, good -bye (G major) Jessie
Oh, good -bye Jessie (D major)
Better make it while there's (A major) time
(E minor) (G major) (D major)
(A major) (E minor) (G major) (D major)
(A major)
You
Goodbye Jesse
