Michael Hurley – Grand Canyon Line (Guitar)

E                               A        E
On the Grand Canyon Line I was ridin', ridin' along!

                                              B7
On the Grand Canyon Line I was singin' those songs

E                       A
On the Grand Canyon Line I was ridin' along

E         A         B7                         E
Couldn't go back to Texas, I know I done wrong

E                              A7         E
I passed the state bank and no money I had

E                                   B7
Wasn't that I really meant to be bad

E7                             A      A7     E
I robbed the state bank with a tremblin' hand

E         A              B7                             E
With the pistol and the money, through the big door I ran

E                               A        E
On the Grand Canyon Line I was ridin', ridin' along!

                                              B7
On the Grand Canyon Line I was singin' those songs

E                       A
On the Grand Canyon Line I was ridin' along

E         A         B7                         E
Couldn't go back to Texas, I know I done wrong

E                       A       E
Sitin' all alone in a boxcar's four walls

E                                       B7
Just cause of a break in the rich man's laws

E                                    A          E7
I thought about my sweetheart and I started to cry

A           B7                         E
When I get caught by my neck I will die

E7                        A7              E7
The boxcar did open and a posse walked in

E7                                                           B7
The sheriff said, "Now, grab him, boys, I think that's him!"

E                                 A           E7
They took me to a jailhouse and now I must die

A7            B7                   E
Five hours to live, how the time flies

E                               A        E
On the Grand Canyon Line I was ridin', ridin' along!

                                              B7
On the Grand Canyon Line I was singin' those songs

E                       A
On the Grand Canyon Line I was ridin' along

E         A         B7                         E
Couldn't go back to Texas, I know I done wrong
