Capo on the 3rd fret
 
[Intro]
Am D F G Am
 
Am                  G         Am
 I seek the man who killed my friend
                      G       Am
 and when we meet my life may end
            F    G       C
 my life depends upon my gun
        D          F
 and my gun spells hope
        G              F            Em       Am
 in the land where the rope and the colt are king
 
 Am D F G Am
 
Am                   G           Am
 I swore a vow on my dyin' breath
                      G       Am
 to ride a trail that ends in death
                 F             G           C         D         F
 and death could strike with a frightening jolt of a lightning bolt in
     G              F            Em       Am
 the land where the rope and the colt are king
 
 Am D F G Am
 
Am         F          G        C   G
 But oh my darlin' if I should die
Am             F             G    F           Em        F
 there's not a soul who will ever know that I loved you so
         Em     Am
 was the reason why
 
 Am                        G          Am
 The days are dust and the nights are black
                      G     Am
 but oh my darlin' if I get back
               F         G       C             D       F
 I'll trade my gun for a weddin' ring and I'll turn my hand
        G              F            Em       Am
 to the land where the rope and the colt are king
