Introdução:

                     G  
G                                            G9                         G                                      D  
Boot leather on a barroom floor, fightin' over a dance hall girl
G                                              C9                                      G                                         D  
He pulled a knife, I pulled a gun, and I sent him home to glory
G                                                              C9  
The sheriff said son, better go with me
G                                                              D  
Give me your gun and come peacefully
                G                                                                    C9                                                 D  
I can drop you right here, or you can tell the court your story
G                                 D  
Hang me high, hang me low
                                     C  
They're gonna hang me in the morning
G                                    D                                         C  
Stay away from Jericho, all you rounders,
                         G  
I give you fair warning
G                                                            C9  
Entered my plea, called it self defense,
     G                            D  
a sober judge sittin' on the bench
                G                                 C9              G                                              D  
And i stared into 24 eyes of a hard-nosed Jericho jury
G                                                              C9  
They called it murder in the first degree,
          G                                                         D  
The judge said, son, stand and look at me
G                                 C9                                    D  
Hang him - and may the lord have mercy
Chorus
G                                                 C9  
Thirteen steps to the scaffold high,
          G                                                              D  
the whole town's out just to watch me die
                     G                 C9                      D  
And not one to shed a tear of mourning
G                                                                 C9  
Please would you honor my last request,
G                                         D  
when they lay me down to rest
                     G                                 C9                                      D  
Let the epitaph on my tombstone read this warning
G                                 D  
Hang me high, hang me low
                                     C  
They went to hang me one bright morning morning
G                                    D                                         C  
Stay away from Jericho, all you rounders,
                         G  
I give you fair warning
Chorus
