[Intro]

Em G Em G C Em D G

[Verse 1]
          Em              G
They were dueling, Doolin-Dalton
        Em              G
High or low, it was the same
     C                   Em
Easy money and faithless women
        D               G
Red-eye whiskey for the pain
Em            Em              G             G
Go down, Bill Dalton, it must be God's will
Em           Em            G           G
Two brothers lying dead in Coffeyville
C          C               Em                 Em
Two voices call to you from where they stood
Am
Lay down your law books now
        C       G
They're no damn good


[Chorus]
               Em             G
Better keep on moving, Doolin-Dalton
          Em              G
Till your shadow sets you free
          C                   Em
If you're fast, and if you're lucky
         C     D                G
You will never see that hanging tree

[Verse 2]
          G                              Em
Well, the towns lay out across the dusty plains
     C                                  Em
Like graveyards filled with tombstones, waiting for the names
      G                                  Em
And a man could use his back, or use his brains
    C                                      D
But some just went stir crazy, Lord, cause nothing ever changed

[Chorus]
           Em              G
Until Bill Doolin met Bill Dalton
               Em                 G
He was working cheap, just biding time
        C                     Em
Then he laughed and said, I'm going
          C         D             G      Am C G
And so he left that peaceful life behind
