Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
The picking riffs are below the lyrics.
For most of the versus you are just strumming D with the
riffs in the background; works well with a looper pedal.
AMERICAN OUTLAWS
D
Hear the blast from a shotgun
D
Seemed to disappear into the night
D
Ain’t no two-bit lawman
D
Got a chance in hell of takin’ my life
D
Spend most of my nights down by a campfire
D
Light up the stars with my game
D
Left home at only fifteen
D
Started out to make my name
(Chorus)
C G D
And we were american outlaws
C G D
Ridin’ across the plain
C G D
From Montana down to Mexico
C G D
Tryin’ to find a better way
D (repeated)
I see our names on railroad posters
Sayin’ we’re wanted all around this land
Got ambushed by 16 enemy soldiers
At the creek just north of Choctaw Canyon
D (repeated)
Bullets spread out over the horizon
There was no fear in our eyes
Hear they sent 16 in to get us
Word is that only two survived.
Chorus
D (repeated)
Headed down south to hangouts in Mexico
Gonna to let the smoke clear for a while
Taking that low down dirty tequila
Them senoritas sure make us smile
D (repeated)
Some say we’re no longer livin
Half a million voices took our lives
If you hear the blast from a shotgun
Might see us reappear into the night
Chorus
D
Hear the blast from a shotgun
Seemed to disappear into the night
Ain’t no two-bit lawman
Got a chance in hell of takin’ my life
D
Spend most of my nights down by a campfire
Light up the stars with my game
Left home at only fifteen
Started out to make my name
(Chorus)
C G D
And we were american outlaws
C G D
Ridin’ across the plain
C G D
From Montana down to Mexico
C G D
Tryin’ to find a better way
D
I see our names on railroad posters
Sayin’ we’re wanted all around this land
Got ambushed by 16 enemy soldiers
At the creek just north of Choctaw Canyon

Bullets spread out over the horizon
There was no fear in our eyes
Hear they sent 16 in to get us
Word is that only two survived.
Chorus
D
Headed down south to hangouts in Mexico
Gonna to let the smoke clear for a while
Taking that low down dirty tequila
Them senoritas sure make us smile

Some say we’re no longer livin
Half a million voices took our lives
If you hear the blast from a shotgun
Might see us reappear into the night
Chorus
