Intro:

Em G Em G C Em D G

Verse 1:
           Em                 G        
They were dueling, Doolin-Dalton

         Em                 G      
High or low, it was the same

      C                     Em       
Easy money and faithless women

         D                 G      
Red-eye whiskey for the pain

 Em               Em                 G               G   
Go down, Bill Dalton, it must be God's will
Em              Em               G             G   
Two brothers lying dead in Coffeyville  

 C            C                 Em                    Em    
Two voices call to you from where they stood    

 Am                             
Lay down your law books now

         C         G      
They're no damn good



Chorus:
                Em                G        
Better keep on moving, Doolin-Dalton

           Em                 G      
Till your shadow sets you free

           C                     Em       
If you're fast, and if you're lucky

          C       D                  G      
You will never see that hanging tree


Verse 2:
           G                                Em        
Well, the towns lay out across the dusty plains

      C                                    Em                       
Like graveyards filled with tombstones, waiting for the names

       G                                    Em        
And a man could use his back, or use his brains

     C                                        D                      
But some just went stir crazy, Lord, cause nothing ever changed


Chorus:
            Em                 G        
Until Bill Doolin met Bill Dalton

                Em                    G      
He was working cheap, just biding time

         C                       Em       
Then he laughed and said, I'm going

           C           D               G        Am    C   G   
And so he left that peaceful life behind
