The capo is on the 3rd fret, and this is just a basic outline of the chords. As you can tell, the studio recording is much more involved. Enjoy. C G/B Am F G C G/B Am F G C G/B Am I'm just a lonesome ol? rounder F Never meant to hurt no one G But some flames are hard to simmer C G/B Am I wore my pride on my bad side F G and on the other kept my hand close by the trigger F G Some folks are guided by the weight of their tongues F G But we all fall silent at the end of a gun, And now I'm C G/B Am Just a lonesome ol? rounder F G With a number for my name and a rope to haunt my dreams
C G/B Am They're gonna hang me boys from a tall, tall tree F G Those demons, they'll be the death of me F G Some folks are guided by some light of the Lord F G But me I was blinded and I'll never afford my salvation C G/B Am F G C G/B Am F G C G/B Am I'm just a lonesome ol? rounder F G Darkness grows, and then it's gone C G/B Am And at the end of this lonely road F G Those deeds you've done they say you'll never go home F G Some folks are guided by the love they share F G But darkness called and left me unaware C G/B Am Now I'm just a lonesome ol? rounder F G With a few last words and one last meal C G/B Am They're gonna hang me, boys, come the morning light F G When darkness smiles and all is still C G/B Am F G (fade slowly until you end on a C) All is still
