This is the EASIEST way to play this song by being the most accurate intro: 2 fret low E bend X 2 STRUM B7 3 TIMES. THEN LET E RING OUT
            E                           B7
There was a showdown at high noon reputations on the line

                                            E
It was the good guys and the bad guys I was eight and he was nine

                                    A
And I forgot to keep my back to the wall in Dodge that day

          B7                             E
And from somewhere behind me I heard him say

                   B7                E
"That's one you owe me I let you slide

        B7                    E
I can't back shoot a buddy it goes against my pride

        G#                   C#M      B      A OR A7
So like two desperados we'll ride off in the sun

         E       B7            E
But just remember   you owe me one"
STRUM B7 3 TIMES. THEN LET E RING OUT
       E                    B7
It was high school football on two different teams

                                  E
I was good but he was better than I would ever be

                                         A
And when I finally crossed the goal line ahead of him that day

       B7                               E
As the crowd was goin' wild I heard him say

                   B7                E
"That's one you owe me I let you slide

        B7                    E
I can't back shoot a buddy it goes against my pride

        G#                   C#M      B      A OR A7
So like two desperados we'll ride off in the sun

         E       B7            E
But just remember   you owe me one"
STRUM B7 3 TIMES. THEN LET E RING OUT
        E                            B7
She was long and lean and pretty and soon to be his bride

                                           E
When she strayed into my arms one day with lovin' on her mind

                                 A
Well I was almost tempted by her soft touch and her sigh

        B7                                          E
But the next time I saw him I could look him in the eye
STRUM B7 3 TIMES. THEN LET E RING OUT
                   B7                E
"That's one you owe me I let you slide

        B7                    E
I can't back shoot a buddy it goes against my pride

        G#                   C#M      B      A OR A7
So like two desperados we'll ride off in the sun

         E       B7            E
But just remember   you owe me one"

                   B7                E
"That's one you owe me I let you slide

        B7                    E

But just remember   you owe me one"
