Reputation chords by Conway Twitty
Verse 1
Am
I have a reputation
that's known throughout the land
F
They say I'm faster on the draw
G
Am
than any living man
They call me the bad man,
they say I kill for fun
F
They say the only thing I know
G
Am
is how to use a gun
C
But they don't know the reason
Am
they branded me as bad
F
This started many years ago
G
Am
when I was just a lad
I rode into a tattered town
a boy of twenty -three
F
So young and yet that very day
G
I carved my destiny
Am
I walked into the town
soon
that sad and fateful day
F
Then I began to gamble
G
Am
to pass the time away
C
Am
I thought I'd play a hand or two
C
Am
and hit the trail again
F
But Lady Luck wasn't with me
Am
and I began to wail
The dealer kept on dealing,
the stakes were getting high
F
And pretty soon there was no one
left to put on
G
Am
Old Cowboy and I
The minutes seemed like hours,
you couldn't hear a sound
F
We bet and raved
G
Am
until we laid all our money down
C
The cowboy smiled and showed
his hand
Am
three aces he did hold
F
But I laid down a royal flush
G
Am
and reached to claim my gold
The cowboy stood and faced me,
his hands hung at his hips
F
A look of hate was in his eyes,
G
Am
a smile at her empty lips
He said, young man, slap leather,
I'm known for miles around
F
To keep my reputation up,
G
Am
I've got to gun you down
C
With a light that's speeding
through and fired,
Am
one life to pay the cost
F
The cowboy crumbled to the floor,
G
Am
his reputation lost
Now years have come and years have gone,
and many men have died
F
He's tried his luck
and hoped he'd be
G
Am
the fastest gun alive
And in my many fights to live,
I wonder if I've won
F
I'm known by all as Batman,
G
Am
they think I kill for fun
C
Someday I'll meet a cowboy
Am
whose feet will meet my chest
F
Man, that would end the saga
of
G
Am
The Bad Man of the West
