      Well, about the time my Daddy left to fight the big war,   
                                                       G              C   
        saw my first pistol in the general store.   
                                                       F                  C   
        In the general store, when I was thirteen,   
                                                               G                      C   
        thought it was the finest thing I ever had seen.   
             C                                            F                    C   
        l asked if I could have one when I grew up,   
                                                                       G                    C   
        Mama dropped a dozen eggs, and she really blew up.   
                                           F                                C   
        She really blew up and I didn't understand,   
                                                         G                            C   
        Mama said the pistol is the devl´ right hand.   
                 F                                    C   
        She really blew up and I didn't understand,   
           G                                            C   
        Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand.   
                 F                                      C   
        The devil's right hand, the devil's right hand,   
           G                                            C   
        Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand.   
             C                                          F                  C   
      My very first pistol was a cap and ball Colt,   
                                                                       G                    C   
        shoot as fast as lightning but it loads a mite slow.   
                                                           F                C   
        It loads a mite slow and I soon found out,   
                                                                     G                            C   
        it can get you into trouble but it can't get you out.   
         C                                                        F  C   
      Then I went and bought myself a Colt 45,   
                                                         G                  C   
        called a peacemaker but I didn know why.   
                                                         F                        C   
        I never knew why, and I didn't understand,   
                                                                       G                      C   
        'cause Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand.   
               F                            C   
        I never knew why, I didn't understand,   
           G                                                    C   
        Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand.   
                 F                                              C   
        The devil's right hand, the devil's right hand,   
           G                                                    C   
        Mama said the pistol is the devil's right hand.   
         C                                                F              C   
        I got into a card game in a company town,   
                                                                 G                    C   
        caught a miner cheating and I shot the dog down.   
                                             F                        C   
        Shot the dog down, watched the dog fall,   
                                                               G                                    C   
        never touched his holster, never had a chance to draw.   
               C                                                          F                      C   
      The trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed,   
                                                         G            C   
        asked me how I pleaded, not guilty I said.   
                       F                                      C   
        Not guilty, I said, you've got the wrong man,   
             G                                                          C   
        nothing touched the trigger but the devil's right hand.   
                   F                                          C   
        Not guilty, I said, you've got the wrong man,   
           G                                                            C   
        nothing touched the trigger but the devil's right hand.   
                 F                                      C   
        the devil's right hand, the devil's right hand,   
           G                                                            C   
        nothing touched the trigger but the devil's right hand.
