Verse 1
(A minor) The year (G major) (F major) (A minor) (G major) (C major) on
the tombstone (G major) reads 1805 (A minor)
It (F major) says that he died (G major) by the gun (C major)
On a cool purple evening in (G major) New Mexico
(A minor) A prair (F major) ie of (G major) shadows and (C major) stone
With (G major) the (A minor) coyotes howl and
the (G major) lonesome wind
His (F major) mournful story is (C major) told
He (G major) (A minor) longs to ride and be (G major) free again
Oh, (F major) when the devil is (G major) sold
And the legend grows (C major) old
So (F major) let's sing a song (G major) for him (C major) now, boys
As (F major) he lays in (G major) his stony grave (C major)
Let's (F major) drink one more (G major) round
to our (A minor) friend in the grave (F major)
The (C major) gunfight is gone,
but the (G major) legend re (C major) mains (A minor) (G major) (F major) (A minor)
(G major) Dry (C major) tumbleweeds (G major) roll over his (A minor) grave
Chased (F major) by the (G major) hot desert wind (C major)
The afternoon trembles (G major) under the (A minor) sun
As the (F major) wild (G major) dust devils spin (C major)
Then (G major) (A minor) twilight falls (G major) once again
Moon (F major) light, silver and gold (C major)
The (A minor) desert cools with the (G major) fading sun
Another (F major) day's grown (G major) cold
And the legend grows (C major) old
So (F major) let's sing a song (G major) for him (C major) now, boys
As he (F major) lays in his (G major) stony grave (C major)
Let's (F major) drink one more (G major) round
to our (A minor) friend in the ground (F major)
The (C major) gunfight is gone,
but the (G major) legend remains (C major)
Let's (F major) sing a (G major) song for him (C major) now, boys
As he (F major) lays in his (G major) stony (C major) grave
Come on, (F major) drink one more (G major) round
to our (A minor) friend in (G major) the ground (F major)
The (C major) gunfight is gone,
but the (G major) legend remain (C major) s
The gunfight is gone,
but the (G major) legend remain (A minor) s (Asus4) (A minor) (Asus4)
(A minor) (Asus4) (A minor) (Asus4) (A minor) (Asus4)
You
(Asus4)
