The shot rang out [Bb] across the land
[Eb] The horse she kept running, [Cm] [Gm] the rider was dead
[Bb] I hung my head, [Eb] I hung my head
[Bb] Now I set off running [Eb] to wake from the dream
[Gm] And my brother's rifle [Eb] went into the stream
[Bb] And I kept on running [Eb] to the salt lands
[Gm] And that's where they found me, [Eb] my head in my hands
[Cm] The sheriff he asked me [F] just why I had run
And then it came to me [Bb] just what I had done
[Eb] And all for no reason, [Gm] just one piece of lead
[Bb] I hung my head, [Eb] I hung my head

[Eb] [Gm]
[Eb] [Bb]
here in my courthouse, [Eb] the whole town is there
[Gm] And I see the judge, [Eb] I help him in his chair
[Bb] Explain to the courtroom, [Eb] why the verdict she did mine
[Gm] And we'll ask the jury, [Eb] why the verdict it's mine [Cm] I see.
I felt the power [F] of death over life.
I offered unto children.
[Bb] I widowed his wife.
[Eb] I begged their forgiveness.
[Gm] I wish I was dead.

[Eb] [Bb] Now early this morning, [Eb] the times appear.
[Gm] I see the gallows [Eb] upon the hill.
[Bb] And out in the distance, a trick of the brain.
[Gm] I see a low rider [Bb] crossing the plain.
[Cm] Now he'd come to fetch me [F] to see what they'd done.
And we'll ride together [Bb] to kingdom come.
[Eb] I'll pray for God's mercy.
[Gm] Soon I'll be dead.
[Bb] I hung my head.
