          E5             G5          
They were Doolin, Doolin-Dalton
        E5              G5       G5
High or low, it was the same
     C5                    E5 
Easy money, and faithless women
        A5      C5        G5       B5
Red eye whiskey for the pain.


E5                             G5               B5
Go down little Dalton, it must be God's will
E5                        G5              G5
Two brothers lyin dead in Coffeeville.
C5                           E5 
Two voices call to you from where they stood,
A5                                    C5       G5
"Lay down your lawbooks now, they're no damn good."

Better keep on movin, Doolin-Dalton

Till your shadow sets you free.

And if you're fast, and if you're lucky,

You will never see that hangin tree.


         B5             G5              C5      C5
Well the towns lay out across the dusty plain
     A5                                E5 
Like graveyards filled with tombstones waitin for the names
      G5                 G5              C5       C5
And a man could use his back or use his brains
    A5                                   D5           B5
But some just went stir-crazy Lord cause nothin ever changed

Till Bill Doolin met Bill Dalton

Be was workin cheap, just buyin time

And then he laughed and said I'm goin

And so he left that peaceful life behind.
