CAPO 3 (Key: F) [Verse 1]
     D
The girl from the canyon smiled a smile that brought me home

     G
As sick and bleedin' as i was, she took me on her own

D
Brought me to the canyon where the sun poured down like rain

       G                                     E             Bm
Her smilin' eyes and the mountain light I thought myself insane
[Verse 2]
        D
These hills have seen me runnin' till my horse could hardly stand

G
Hidin' by day in the mountains movin' with the moon on the land

D
I'm tryin' to find my freedom in a world that wants me dead

     G                              E                 Bm
The girl from the canyon took and healed my wounds instead
[Chorus]
     G
The girl from the canyon she don't need to know what I've done

       D
She laughed with me in the moonlight till the morning brought the sun

      G                        Em
The girl from the canyon, the girl from the canyon

     G       C    D
She was the only one
[Verse 3]
      D
An outlaw is a hunted one with a price upon his head

  G
We're all outlaws in a way that is what she said

 D
And so I left the canyon when I was strong enough to ride

      G                            E           Bm
The girl from the canyon she was ridin' by my side.
[Chorus]
     G
The girl from the canyon she don't need to know what I've done

       D
She laughed with me in the moonlight till the morning brought the sun

      G                        Em
The girl from the canyon, the girl from the canyon

     G       C    D
She was the only one
[Outro]
     G       C    D
She was the only one
