Living In The West

E MajorE          A augmentedA
John Wesley Harding shot a man for snoring
B7B7                  E MajorE
Killed him in the bed right where he lay
               A augmentedA
He took a snort of whisky and went back to his sleeping
B7B7                   E MajorE
Rode out before they found him the next day


E MajorE                 A augmentedA
Now the brothers Frank and Jesse no one could be more fearsome
B7B7                       E MajorE
They robbed the trains and rode in the outlaw gangs
              A augmentedA
The civil war was over but still they fought for Dixie
B7B7                 E MajorE
And 🏷Legend has their last name to be James

    A augmentedA       B7B7  E MajorE         C# minorC#m
    Living in the west must have been the best
    A augmentedA                  B7B7
    Must have been the greatest times of all
    A augmentedA         B7B7       E MajorE        C# minorC#m
    Me I lived in the east and I was bored to say the least
    A augmentedA                           B7B7
    Cause I never saw them sons of guns in barrooms starting brawls

SOLO-      C# minorC#m   A augmentedA    E MajorE    BB    E MajorE

E MajorE           A augmentedA
Little William Bonney Billy the Kid they called him
B7B7             E MajorE
Had to use a six gun to survive
               A augmentedA
He bit the dust at twenty-one but he left a reputation
B7B7              E MajorE
A augmentedA notch for every year he was alive


Repeat CHORUS


E MajorE                 A augmentedA
And now the frontier days are over for Billy and John and Jesse
B7B7                   E MajorE
And a thousand other bad guys of their day
                 A augmentedA
But they still live on in stories and I hope they live forever
B7B7                    E MajorE
And to sum it up here is all that I wanna say


Repeat CHORUS
