The Ballad Of Boot Hill

G
Here lies Les Moore
D
Four slugs from a forty-four
                         G
No Les no more

          Em                     G
Out in Arizona, just south of Tucson
                  Em                    D
Where tumbleweeds tumble in search of a home

There's a town they call Tombstone
                      G
Where the brave never cry
               Em      D                     G
They live by a six-gun,  by a six-gun they die

                 Em                            G
It's been a long time now since the town was a boon
                 Em                       D
The jailhouse is empty, so's the Palace Saloon
                                               G
Just one look will tell you that this town was real
               Em       D                   G
A secluded old dirt road   leads up to Boot Hill

               Em                          G
Walk up to the fence there and look at the view
                       Em                       D
That's where they were hangin', eighteen-eighty-two
                                     G
It's easy to see where the brave men died
                  Em      D               G
Rope marks on the old tree   are now petrified

                   Em                  G
At night, when the moon shines so far away
               Em                              D
It gets mighty lonesome, lookin' down on their graves
                                       G
There lies Billy Klen; never wanted to kill
                        Em     D                 G
But he's there with the guilty,   way up on Boot Hill
