Ballad Of Billy The Kid chords

[G] From a [Em]town known as [F]wheeling, west vir[G]ginia [Em]
Rode a [F]boy with a [C]six-gun in his [D]hand [G]
And his [Em]daring life of [F]crime
Made him a [C]legend in his [G]time
East and [Am7]west of the [D]rio grande

[F] [F] [C] [C] [F] [G]

[G] Well, he [Em]started with a [F]bank in colo[G]rado [Em]
In the [F]pocket of his [C]vest, a colt he [D]hid [G]
And his [Em]age and his [F]size
Took the [C]teller by surp[G]rise
And the word[Am7] spread of [D]billy the kid

[F] [F] [C] [C] [F] [G]

[C] Well, he [D]never traveled [Em]heavy
Yes, he a[Bm]lways rode [C]alone
And he [G]soon put many older guns to [C]shame
And he [D]never had a [Em]sweetheart
And he [Bm]never had a [C]home
But the [Dsus4]cowboy and the [Dadd9]rancher knew his [D]name
