Key: E major

Intro 1

Verse 1
D D 
 
They sent me out from
G G 
 
Santa Fe to try and find his trail
D D 
 
They think that I'm the only one
A A 
 
who can bring him back to jail
D D 
 
This star says I'm a lawman this
G G 
 
gun has seen me through
And though my heart is heavy
D D 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
I've got a job to do
G G 
 
You see he's such a proud man
D D 
 
who never learned to crawl
But a good man turns gun slinger
A A 
 
he's the meanest man of all
D D 
 
He killed the US Marshall and for
G G 
 
that he's gonna pay
D D 
 
And I'm the lonely lawman who's
A A 
 
on his trail today

Interlude 1

Verse 2
D D 
 
There was a time he fought for
G G 
 
true and on the side of right
D D 
 
Until the only girl he loved
A A 
 
was killed one faithful night
D D 
 
I know his heart was shattered as
G G 
 
he turned the barren sod
D D 
 
And laid away her body come
A A 
 
D D 
 
G G 
 
ending into God
Then he vowed a revenge to
D D 
 
those who took her life
And every notch upon his gun
A A 
 
a tear shed for his wife
D D 
 
But revenge is like wild fire
G G 
 
sweepin' through the wood
D D 
 
It turns reason into ashes and
A A 
 
D D 
 
it burns out on the good
G G 
 
Now I  can't help but remember
D D 
 
as I trail this lonesome man
I don't believe while we were
A A 
 
boys out of any race we ran
D D 
 
For you see his face resembles mine
G G 
 
we talk somewhat the same
D D 
 
And though we walk in different world
A A 
 
D D 
 
we both wear our daddy's name
