| A | D A | A | E A |


[Verse 1]
        A                         D
Well a man came on the 6 o'clock news
      A                              E      A
Said somebodys been shot, somebodys been abused
                                               D
Somebody blew up a building, somebody stole a car
 A                                  E       A
Somebody got away, somebody didn't get too far yeah
F#                      A
-- They didn't get too far


[Verse 2]
      A                                     D
Grandpappy told my pappy, back in my days, son
   A                                E       A
A man had to answer for the wicked that he done
                                            D
Take all the rope in Texas find a tall oak tree
 A                                            E        A
Round up all of them bad boys, hang them high in the street
F#                        A
-- For all the people to see that...


[Chorus]
E                                   D      A
Justice is the one thing you should always find
           A
You got to saddle up your boys
           A
You got to draw a hard line
         E                              D       A
When the gun smoke settles we'll sing a victory tune
       A
We'll all meet back at the local saloon
                              D         A
We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces
G                      D                A
Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
G                      D                A
Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses


[Verse 3]
    A                                   D
We got too many gangsters doing dirty deeds
      A                                      E        A
Weve got too much corruption, too much crime in the streets
                                                         D
Its time the long arm of the law put a few more in the ground
 A                                   E         A
Send em all to their maker and hell settle em down
F#                          A
-- You can bet hell set em down cause...


[Chorus]
E                                   D      A
Justice is the one thing you should always find
           A
You got to saddle up your boys
           A
You got to draw a hard line
         E                              D       A
When the gun smoke settles we'll sing a victory tune
       A
We'll all meet back at the local saloon
                              D         A

G                      D                A

Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses

Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
