[Intro]
 
C G Em
 
[Verse 1]
Em                         G
I'll tell you a story of October ninety-two
   Am                               Em
In Coffeyville, Kansas, the day the Dalton gang was through
Em                     G
Their pride was coming before their fall
     Am                               Em
They could of had a little, but they wanted it all
 
[Chorus]
 
C
Upstaged the James gang, two banks in one day
    G                          Em
The way it was figured, they'd make a getaway
 
[Verse 2]
 
Em                           G
The quietly rode up, hitched up to the fence
  Am                       Em
Devided the gang up before things got intense
Em                        G
First national lobby, the boys stepped inside
        Am                         Em
Fillin' money in a green sack when they were recognized
 
[Chorus]
 
C
Out on the boardwalk, townsfolk fired their guns
G                                      Em
Hailed the streets with bullets as the Daltons began to run

[Verse 3]
 
Em                              G
Another bank called Condon, the boys made their play
  Am                             Em
Cashier kept them waiting as vigilantes took their aim
Em                                 G
A bullet through the window struck one in the arm
     Am                     Em
They cut out the back alley toward the livery barn
 
[Chorus]
 
    C
And when the smoke had settled, just Emmett Dalton was alive
    G                               Em
The rest had met their maker in the streets where they died
 
    C
Now you know the story of justice brought down
     G                           Em
By a group of common people in a little Kansas town
 
[Outro]
