[Intro]
G C Am F
C F Am G

C Am F C
I am far away from home - With neither faaaaaaamily nor friends
C F Am G C
I never meant to stay so long - In the Missouri borderlands


C Am F C
Three years ago I held a job - Saw the woooooorld from my pony sway
C F Am G C
Riding drag on a dusty mount - I knew I'd worked when I drew my pay


C Am F C
But times got hard, Christ times got mean - And I fell iiiiiiiin with desperate men
C F Am G C
And one night the worst of them - Laid out what was an awful plan


[Break]
G C Am F
C F Am G


C Am F C
I did not like such wicked talk - Of Murder aaaaaaaand bold robbery
C F Am G C
I told those men I would walk - And they all aimed their guns at me


C Am F C
Their prisoner I helped rob a bank - And much gooooold we did obtain
C F Am G C
They shot a boy just for the sport - I stood and watched his young life wane


C Am F C
Such dreadful sounds I'd never heard - His mother’s waailing filled the room
C F Am G C
She looked at me and screamed these words - Devil take you to your doom


[Break]
G C Am F
C F Am G


C Am F C
I turned to face that murderous crew - Shot ‘em dead. I killed all four
C F Am G C
And the only thing I rue - Had not thought of that before


C Am F C
The posse found me outside of town - As I was kneeeling there to pray
C F Am G C
From my gallows high I to lay down - In a dark Missouri grave


C Am F C
Please hide the rope stains around my neck - When my mooother sees me dead
C F Am G C
Please don’t let my brothers take - The faithful path I chose to tread
C Am F C
Cause im far away from home - With neither faaaaamily nor friends
C F Am G C
I never meant to stay so long - In the Missouri borderlands
C F Am G C
And now I'll spend eternity - In the Missouri borderlands
