There never was a man so doggone mean
       Em7    F     G
I wore only black and my eyes were green

I rode into Dodge on a sunny day
        Em7      F     G
I went there to steal all the railmen's pay
  C      Em7      F      C
And when I left town, all the streets ran red
          Em7       F     C
I had ten grand in gold, and three guards lay dead

BRIDGE:
    G       F       C
I was a bad man with a heart made of stone
       G           F    G
If you were a wise man, you would've left me alone______


   C     Em7       F   C
I've lived all my life, such a lonely one
        Em7     F    G
Just me and my horse and a fine six-gun
   C       Em7     F     C
I've lived and I've loved and I knew great pain
        Em7    F   C
But I know now, I'd do it over again, singing
