D/F#      Em             G          
They were Doolin, Doolin-Dalton

        Em              G     
High or low, it was the same

G7   C                    Em 
Easy money, and faithless women

        A      C        G       B7
Red eye whiskey for the pain
[Verse 2]
Em                              G               B7
Go down Bill Dalton, it must be God's will

Em                        G              G7
Two brothers lyin dead in Coffeeville

C                           Em 
Two voices call to you from where they stood,

A                                   C       G
Lay down your lawbooks now, they're no damn good
[Verse 3]
               Em            G 
Better keep on movin, Doolin-Dalton

          Em              G     
Till your shadow sets you free

G7            C                   Em
And if you're fast, and if you're lucky,

         A     C               G  
You will never see that hangin tree
[Bridge]
         Bm             G              C      C/B
Well the towns lay out across the dusty plain

     Am                                Em 
Like graveyards filled with tombstones waitin for the names

      G                 G7              C       C/B
And a man could use his back or use his brains

    Am                                   D           B7
But some just went stir-crazy Lord cause nothin ever changed
[Verse 4]
          Em              G 
Till Bill Doolin met Bill Dalton

       Em                       G     
He was workin cheap, just buyin time

G7          C                    Em 
And then he laughed and said I'm goin

          A         C             G 
And so he left that peaceful life behind
