F
there’s
fresh horses and we’re ready to ride,

there’ll
be another showdown around sunset,
Am
and
we’ll be coming back dead or alive.
Am
There’s a chain smoker up
riding shotgun,
F
an
all night game of cards in the back,
Dm
the ever loser’s
getting riled and the game’s getting wild,

as
the deuces and the one-eyed-jacks.

with
a whistle and a sneer when the gun smoke cleared,
Am
you
believed every word he sang.
