Father, I have come to tell you about something I done
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
Well, as the night reared its light head into a baby's sun
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
We rolled down into the town from where the Black Throats come
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
And you know there was a robbery, there was a holdup
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
Oh, there was a shootout, and there was a killing
A augmentedA
And there's blood on my hands
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
Today I killed a man
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
Well now, sister, you know me well
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
And you ask me, well, how it was I felt
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
Well, she had an appetite for loving only a fading beauty could possess
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
She knew just what she wanted and she wouldn't take less
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
I figured it was a small town, it was at sundown
F#F# G+G
It was just a small crowd of people around
F#F# G+G
Oh, but he wouldn't put his guns down
F#F# G+G
No, he wouldn't put his guns down
F#F# G+G
Woah, he wouldn't put his guns down
A augmentedA
Now, his blood's on my hands
F#F# G+G F#F#
Today I killed a man
G+G D MajorD
And papa, you showed me the beauty of buckshot
A augmentedA F#F# D MajorD
The love song a bullet sings as she whistles
A augmentedA F#F# G+G
And showed me the story of the self-loading pistol
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
Well now, father, I have come to tell you about something I done
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
He had a widow running through town screaming
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
He had a brother and his tears were streaming
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
Now I'm moving on the border with a rifle on my shoulder
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
'Cause daddy, you showed me the beauty of buckshot
A augmentedA F#F# D MajorD
The love song a bullet sings as she whistles
A augmentedA F#F# G+G
And showed me the story of the self-loading pistol
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
And I just come to tell you that it don't hurt no more
F#F# G+G F#F# G+G
No, it don't hurt no more 'cause your son, he's an outlaw
F#F# G+G
Oh, your son, he's an outlaw
F#F# G+G
Yes, your son, he's an outlaw
F#F# G+G
Oh, your son, he's an outlaw
F#F# G+G
Now, your son, he's an outlaw
F#F# G+G
Oh, your son, he's an outlaw
A augmentedA
Now, his blood feels good on my hands
F#F# G+G F#F#
Today I killed a man
