\begin{verse}
|
|
\[C]Early one morning
|
|
With \[F]time to kill
|
|
I \[Am]borrowed Jebb's rifle
|
|
And \[F]sat on the hill
|
|
I \[C]saw a lone rider
|
|
\[F]Crossing the plain
|
|
I \[Am]drew a bead on him
|
|
To \[F]practice my aim
|
|
\[Dm]My brother's rifle
|
|
Went \[G]off in my hand
|
|
A shot rang out
|
|
\[C]Across the land
|
|
The \[F]horse, he kept running
|
|
The \[Am]rider was dead
|
|
I \[C]hung my head
|
|
I \[F]hung my head
|
|
\[C]

\begin{verse}
|
|
I set off running
|
|
To wake from the dream
|
|
My brother's rifle
|
|
Went into the sheen
|
|
I kept on running
|
|
Into the south lands
|
|
That's where they found me
|
|
My head in my hands
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
The sheriff he asked me
|
|
Why had I run
|
|
And then it came to me
|
|
Just what I had done
|
|
And all for no reason
|
|
Just one piece of lead
|
|
I hung my head
|
|
I hung my head
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
Here in the court house
|
|
The whole town was there
|
|
I see the judge
|
|
High up in his chair
|
|
"Explain to the court room
|
|
What went through your mind.
|
|
And we'll ask the jury
|
|
What verdict they find."
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
I felt the power
|
|
Of death over life
|
|
I orphaned his children
|
|
I widowed his wife
|
|
I begged their forgiveness
|
|
I wish I was dead
|
|
I hung my head
|
|
I hung my head
|
|
\end{verse}

|
\begin{verse}
|
|
Early one morning
|
|
With time to kill
|
|
I see the gallows
|
|
Up on a hill
|
|
And out in the distance
|
|
A trick of the brain
|
|
I see a lone rider
|
|
Crossing the plain
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
And he'd come to fetch me
|
|
To see what they'd done
|
|
And we'd ride together
|
|
To kingdom come
|
|
I prayed for god's mercy
|
|
For soon I'd be dead
|
|
I hung my head
|
|
I hung my head
|
|
\end{verse}
