Capo 2nd Fret
Intro (Em, C, G, D, Em, C, D, G, Em, C, G, D, Em, C, D, C)
V1) Be[G]neath a wester[D]n sky on the [G]way to Santa Fe[C]
I [D]met up with a rounde[Am]r
c[G]laimed he rode with Jesse James[C]
[G]They robbed the Glendal[D]e Train[C]
V2) As we crossed the Texas plains
not a blessed word was said
Till we reached Amarillo, then he raised his weary head
He said, Son, Ill soon be dead
V3) I have so much to tell you, but Im left so little time
Theres a place out in the Badlands
about a two day ride
Its not so hard to find
Br) F[D]rank and Jesse holed up in[Am] a cave for fort[C]y days[D]
[D]Took all that they could carry, [Am]then hid t[G]he rest away[C]
[Bm]Frank grew tired of living[C] like a dog out o[G]n the run[D]
[Bm]and Jesse soon fell victim[C] to a blast from[G] Bob Fords gun[D]
[Am]Now Im t[C]he only one[D]
V4)His voice it faltered there and he soon passed away
I laid him six feet under
that hard West Texas clay
And then I rode away
V5)
I found everything he told me near the place they call Red Cloud
With the gold I found a letter
when I read I cried out loud
It said, Your momma would be proud
alt V)
Some men are born to freedom
While others come to fame
And some will leave with nothing but a marker and their name
In the end its all the same
