The Sons Of Katie Elder Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

F[Am]rom the four winds we have come, Katie Elder,
Four brothers on the [G]run Katie [C]Elde[E]r.
All your li[Am]ttle ones have grown and we've re[D]aped what we have [Am]sown,

Yes, we've reaped what we have sown, Katie Elder.
Oh, the w[A]ind blows l[E]ike the devil w[A]hen it b[E]lows,
And the b[A]oy grows up and like the w[E]ind he goes.
So, m[A]others, teach your s[F]ons to n[A]ot live by a g[F]un,
And to n[A]ot live like the s[E]ons of Katie El[A]der,
And to n[A]ot live like the s[E]ons of Katie El[A]der.
I t[Am]hink you'd understand, Katie Elder,
That a man is just a m[G]an, Katie [C]Elde[E]r.
They're b[Am]ound to cut him down, if he d[D]oesn't stand his g[Am]round,

But they haven't cut us down yet, Katie Elder.
Oh, the w[A]ind blows l[E]ike the devil w[A]hen it b[E]lows,
And the b[A]oy grows up and like the w[E]ind he goes.
So, m[A]others, teach your s[F]ons to n[A]ot live by a g[F]un,
And to n[A]ot live like the s[E]ons of Katie E[A]lder,
And to n[A]ot live like the s[E]ons of Katie E[A]lder.
We'll t[Am]ry to make it right, Katie Elder,
No more hidin' in the ni[G]ght, Katie [C]Elde[E]r.
I [Am]vow it on your grave by all the t[D]hings we never g[Am]ave,

And mistakes that we all made, Katie Elder.
Oh, the w[A]ind blows l[E]ike the devil w[A]hen it b[E]lows,
And the b[A]oy grows up and like the w[E]ind he goes.
So, m[A]others, teach your s[F]ons to n[A]ot live by a g[F]un,
And to n[A]ot live like the s[E]ons of Katie E[A]lder, X2
