[Gb]
[C] [E]
[Eb] When [E] Liberty Valance rode [A] to [E] town, the women folk would hide, they'd hide.
When Liberty Valance walked around, the men would step aside.
Because the point of [Eb] a gun was the only [Abm] law that Liberty [A] [B] understood.
When [E] it came [Dbm] to shooting straight and [A] fast, he was [E] mighty good.
[Bm] [E] From out of the east, [A] a stranger came, [Dbm] a law book in his hand, [A] a man.
[B] The [E] kind of a man the [A] West would need to [Dbm] tame a troubled land.
[Abm] Because the point of a gun [Ebm] was the only [Abm] law that Liberty [A] understood.
[Em] [B] When it came to [Dbm] shooting straight and [A] fast, he [Dbm] was mighty good.
But many a man would face his gun, and many a man [B] would fall.
[E] A man who shot [Db] Liberty Valance, he shot [A] Liberty Valance, he was the [E] bravest of them [Dbm] all.
[A]
[E] The love of a girl can [A] make a man stay [Dbm] on when he should go, [A] stay on.
[B]
Just trying [E] to build a [A] peaceful life, when love [Dbm] is free to grow.
[Abm] But the point of a gun [Ebm] was the only law [Abm] that Liberty [A] understood.
[E] When the [Ab] final [A] showdown came at last, [E] a law book was no good.
[Gm] Alone [F] and afraid, she [Bb] prayed that he'd [Dm] return that fateful night, oh [Bb] that night.
[C]
When [F] nothing she said could [Bb] keep her man from [Dm] going out to fight.
[Am] From the moment a girl [Em] gets a people [Am] grown, the very first thing [Bb] she learned,
[Dm] when two men go out to face each [Bb] other, [Gm] only one [Dm] returns.
Everyone [Am] worth two [Dm] shots ran out, one shot made [Fm] Liberty [Am] fall.
A man who [Dm] shot Liberty Valance, [Am] he [Dm] shot Liberty [Bb] Valance, he was the bravest [Dm] of them all.
[C] A [Am] man who [D] shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty [Bb] Valance, he was the bravest of them [G] all.
[D] [Ab] [Dm] [Ab]
