Gene Pitney /Burt Bacharach - Hal David
Capo IV
C majorC
C majorC FF
When Liberty Valance rode to town
E minorEm A minorAm FF G+G
The womenfolk would hide, they'd hide
C majorC FF
When Liberty Valance walked around
E minorEm A minorAm
The men would step aside
E minorEm G minorGm
'Cause the point of a gun was the only law
E minorEm FF G+G
That Liberty understood
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
When it came to shooting straight and fast
FF C majorC
He was mighty good
C majorC FF
From out of the East a stranger came
E minorEm A minorAm FF G+G
A augmentedA law book in his hand, a man
C majorC FF
The kind of a man the West would need
E minorEm A minorAm
To tame a troubled land
E minorEm G minorGm
But the point of a gun was the only law
E minorEm FF G+G
That Liberty understood
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
When the final showdown came to pass
FF C majorC
A augmentedA law book was no good
A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm
Many a man would face his gun
E minorEm FF G+G
And many a man would fall
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
The man who shot Liberty Valance
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
He shot Liberty Valance
FF C majorC
He was the bravest of them all
C majorC FF
The love of a girl can make a man stay on
E minorEm A minorAm FF G+G
When he should go, stay on
C majorC FF
Just trying to build a peaceful life
E minorEm A minorAm
Where love is free to grow
E minorEm G minorGm
But the point of a gun was the only law
E minorEm FF G+G
That Liberty understood
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
When the final showdown came to pass
FF C majorC
A augmentedA law book was no good
C majorC FF
Alone and afraid, she prayed that he'd
E minorEm A minorAm FF G+G
Return that fateful night, oh that night
C majorC FF
When nothing she said could keep her man
E minorEm A minorAm
From going out to fight
E minorEm A minorAm
From the moment a girl gets to be full grown
E minorEm FF G+G
The very first thing she learns
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
When two men go out to face each other
FF C majorC
Only one returns
A minorAm E minorEm A minorAm
Everyone heard two shots ring out
E minorEm FF G+G
The shot made Liberty fall
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
The man who shot Liberty Valance
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
He shot Liberty Valance
FF C majorC
He was the bravest of them all
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
The man who shot Liberty Valance
C majorC E minorEm A minorAm
He shot Liberty Valance
FF C majorC
He was the bravest of them all
