    C/G                             F
And I met this girl, her name was Clarice
         C/G
She was all that my heart did desire
          C/G                          F
But she'd given her hand to some other man
            C/G               G                 C/G    F C/G

      C/G                     F

       C/G
And we put forty paces between us
       C/G                                  F
And I turned on a dime, and my six-shooter cried
              C/G                  G            C/G     F C/G
And when the dust cleared, it was him that was bleedin'

You've had a good fight, but now I'll teach you to die

So where do we go from here?

So I ran from that town, me and my fair maid

For the sheriff said I'd be hangin' by morning
       C/G                                               F
But I slipped from his grasp, yeah, he hasn't caught me yet
               C/G             G       C/G    F C/G
Though I've a feelin' that my time is comin'


🎸 Chorus:
            F            C/G      G     Am7
They said, "put up your hands, my bonny boy
       F       C/G     F
You've nothing left to fear
        F          C/G                G             Am7
You've had a good fight, but I'll be hangin' you tonight

Lay me to rest with two guns on my chest
          C/G                        F C/G
And say, "boy, your fight is over"
