[Verse 1]
A E D A
Gather you all and listen here
A E D A
I'll tell you a tale if you lend me an ear
A E D A
I rode a horse through many a-town
A E D A
But the devil rode me down to the ground
D E
I was to marry a very rich girl,
A D
I loved her as only I can
D E
But the father was shot and his gold was stoled
B E7
And now I'm Devil's man na na na
A E D A
And now I sing a tale of woe
A E D A
Through the bars of the county jail
A N.C.
La la la la la, la la la la la

[Verse 2]
D E
I walked into the room one night
A D
I found her mother and gun
D E
Well the man was dead, and I kneeled and cried
B E7
The sheriff ran in and said: "I'm holding you, son"
[Chorus]
A E D A
La, la la la la, la la la
A E D A
La, la la la la, la la la
[Verse 3]
D E
Through the day I sing and play
A D
But time is on my side
D E
But when the moon and stars come out
B E7
I lay me down and cry
A E D A
For the saviour, mar I lied
A E D A
Now I will not have a ride
A E D A
Beside the window the scaffold was made
A E D A
On the morrow I will hang

La, la la la la, la la la
A E D A
La, la la la la, la la la
