D
Hear the blast from a shotgun
D
 Seemed to disappear into the night
D
 Ain’t no two-bit lawman
D
 Got a chance in hell of takin’ my life

D
Spend most of my nights down by a campfire
D
 Light up the stars with my game
D
 Left home at only fifteen
D
 Started out to make my name

(Chorus)
C          G           D
 And we were american outlaws
C       G          D
 Ridin’ across the plain
C       G             D
 From Montana down to Mexico
C         G             D
 Tryin’ to find a better way

D (repeated)
I see our names on railroad posters
 Sayin’ we’re wanted all around this land
 Got ambushed by 16 enemy soldiers
 At the creek just north of Choctaw Canyon

D (repeated)
Bullets spread out over the horizon
 There was no fear in our eyes
 Hear they sent 16 in to get us
 Word is that only two survived.

Chorus

D (repeated)
Headed down south to hangouts in Mexico
 Gonna to let the smoke clear for a while
 Taking that low down dirty tequila
 Them senoritas sure make us smile

D (repeated)
Some say we’re no longer livin
 Half a million voices took our lives
 If you hear the blast from a shotgun
 Might see us reappear into the night

Chorus

D
 Hear the blast from a shotgun
 Seemed to disappear into the night
 Ain’t no two-bit lawman
 Got a chance in hell of takin’ my life

D
Spend most of my nights down by a campfire
 Light up the stars with my game
 Left home at only fifteen
 Started out to make my name

(Chorus)
C          G           D
 And we were american outlaws
C       G          D
 Ridin’ across the plain
C       G             D
 From Montana down to Mexico
C         G             D
 Tryin’ to find a better way

 Sayin’ we’re wanted all around this land
 Got ambushed by 16 enemy soldiers
 At the creek just north of Choctaw Canyon

 Hear they sent 16 in to get us

 Gonna to let the smoke clear for a while
 Taking that low down dirty tequila

 Half a million voices took our lives
 If you hear the blast from a shotgun
 Might see us reappear into the night
