C F
John Wesley Harding shot a man for snoring
G7 C
Killed him in the bed right where he lay
F
He took a snort of whisky and went back to his sleeping
G7 C
Rode out before they found him the next day
F
Now the brothers Frank and Jesse no one could be more fearsome
G7 C
They robbed the trains and rode in the outlaw gangs
F
The civil war was over but still they fought for Dixie
G7 C
And legend has their last name to be James
F G7 C Am
Living in the west must have been the best
F G7
Must have been the greatest times of all
F G7 C Am
Me I lived in the east and I was bored to say the least
F G7
Cause I never saw them sons of guns in barrooms starting brawls
C F
Little William Bonney Billy the Kid they called him
G7 C
Had to use a six gun to survive
F
He bit the dust at twenty-one but he left a reputation
G7 C
A notch for every year he was alive
F G7 C Am
Living in the west must have been the best
F G7
Must have been the greatest times of all
F G7 C Am
Me I lived in the east and I was bored to say the least
F G7
Cause I never saw them sons of guns in barrooms starting brawls
C F
And now the frontier days are over for Billy and John and Jesse
G7 C
And a thousand other bad guys of their day
F
But they still live on in stories and I hope they live forever
G7 C
And to sum it up here is all that I wanna say
F G7 C Am
Living in the west must have been the best
F G7
Must have been the greatest times of all
F G7 C Am
Me I lived in the east and I was bored to say the least
F G7
Cause I never saw them sons of guns in barrooms starting brawls
