This song is one of my favourite among the Eagles' songs and I decided to
transcribe it even if the lyrics are largely incomplete. I'm sorry but it's
too hard for me to understand each word so I invite you (please!) to help me in
completing this transcription, if you can. Anyway, the chords sound pretty
good but feel free to send me your eventual corrections. Hope you like it!

Intro: G Em G Em G G7 C Em A C G D/F#
(1st verse)
They were [Em]Doolin Doolin-[G]Dalton, high or [Em]low it was the s[G]same[G7]
easy [C]money and faithless [Em]woman Red-eye [A]whiskey[C] for the [G]pain [B7]
(2nd verse)
[Em}Go down Bill Dalton it must [G]be god's will [B7]
[Em}Two brothers lyin' dead in dead in [G]Coffeyville [G7]
[C] Two voices call to you from [Em]where they stood, 
[A] Lay down your law books no they're [C] no damn [G]

Better keep on [Em] movin' Doolin-[G]Dalton 'til your [Em}shadow set you [G]free [G7]
and if you're [C]fast and if you're [Em]lucky you will[A]never[C]see the hanging [G]tree [B7]

Bridge: Bm G C Am Em G G7 C Am D B7
 [G}? Well the[Bm]towns lay out [G]across the dusty [C]plain [C/B]
Like [Am]graveyards filled with tombstones [Em]waitin' for the names
And a [G]man could use his [G7]back or use his [C] brains [C/B]
But [Am]some just went stir-crazy Lord cause [D] ever [B7]

(4th verse)

Till Bill [Em] Dollin met Bill [G} Dalton
He was workin' [Em]cheap, just buyin' [G]time [G7]

And so he [A]left that [C]peaceful life be[G]hind
