C                    F
John Wesley Harding  shot a man for snoring 

G7                                   C
Killed him in the bed right where he lay

                              F
He took a snort of whisky and went back to his sleeping

G7                                      C
Rode out before they found him the next day

                                 F
Now the brothers Frank and Jesse no one could be more fearsome

G7                                            C
They robbed the trains and rode in the outlaw gangs

                           F
The civil war was over but still they fought for Dixie

G7                                   C
And legend has their last name to be James

F             G7    C                  Am
Living in the west  must have been the best

F                                    G7
Must have been the greatest times of all

F                 G7             C                Am
Me I lived in the east and I was bored to say the least

        F                                                G7
Cause I never saw them sons of guns in barrooms starting brawls

C                      F
Little William Bonney  Billy the Kid they called him

G7                         C
Had to use a six gun to survive

                              F
He bit the dust at twenty-one but he left a reputation

G7                            C
A notch for every year he was alive

F             G7    C                  Am
Living in the west  must have been the best

F                                    G7
Must have been the greatest times of all

F                 G7             C                Am
Me I lived in the east and I was bored to say the least

        F                                                G7
Cause I never saw them sons of guns in barrooms starting brawls

C                                  F
And now the frontier days are over for Billy and John and Jesse

G7                                     C
And a thousand other bad guys of their day

                                  F
But they still live on in stories and I hope they live forever

G7                                        C
And to sum it up here is all that I wanna say

F             G7    C                  Am
Living in the west  must have been the best

F                                    G7
Must have been the greatest times of all

F                 G7             C                Am
Me I lived in the east and I was bored to say the least

        F                                                G7
Cause I never saw them sons of guns in barrooms starting brawls
