[Intro]
Am C G Am
Am C G Am
[Chorus]
Am C
Now the Chisholm trail is a lot of things
G Am
But to me it's an open grave
Am C
I've seen some blood and many men die
G Am
At the hands of John Wesley's rage
[Verse 1]
Am C
Now, John Welsey Harden was just eighteen
G Am
In the summer of seventy-one
Am C
He was wanted for killin' many good men
G Am
He took this job to stay on the run
[Verse 2]
Am C
He was callous and cold about everything
G Am
The most vicous killer I know
Am C
We took twelve-hundred steers to Abilene
G Am
He had two months riding alone
[Verse 3]
Am C
Well another herd was pushing drag
G Am
And all the John saw was red
Am C
And two the vaqueros herdin' them
G Am
He said, "pull back or else you are dead"
[Solo]
Am C G Am
Am C G Am
[Verse 4]
Am C
When I looked back, John was turned
G Am
With an evil look in his eyes
Am C
He pulled out his pistol and gunned the man down
G Am
And left them alone there to die
[Verse 5]
Am C
By the time we reached Abilene
G Am
Word had spread all through the town
Am C
But jurisdiction was out of reach
G Am
So no verdict could ever be found
[Verse 6]
Am C
Now some men are born without concsiounce
G Am
They can kill without even a care
Am C
And they lust for their greed and power
G Am
And they don't know what's rightous and fair
[Chorus]
Am C
Now the Chisholm trail is a lot of things
G Am
But to me it's an open grave
Am C
I've seen some blood and many men die
G Am
At the hands of John Wesley's rage
[Outro]
Am C G Am
