I'll sing...
verse 1EB7
I'll sing you a true song of Billy the Kid
EB7
I'll sing of some desperate deeds that he did
EA
Way out in New Mexico long, long ago
EB7EEm
When a man's only chance was his own forty-four
verse 2EB7
When Billy the Kid was a very young lad
EB7
In old Silver City he went to the bad
EA
Way out in the West, with a gun in his hand
EB7EEm
At the age of twelve years he did kill his first man
verse 3EB7
There's Mexican maidens play guitars and sing
EB7
Songs about Billy their boy bandit king
EA
Ere his young manhood has reached his sad end
EB7EEm
With a notch an his pistol for twenty one men
verse 4EB7
Was on a sad night when poor Billy died
EB7
He said to his friend I'm not satisfied
EA
There's twenty one men I have put bullets through
EB7EEm
Sheriff Pat Garrett must make twenty two
Verse 5
EB7
I'll sing you how Billy the Kid met his fate
EB7
The bright moon was shining the hour was late
EA
Shot down by Pat Garrett who once was his friend
EB7EEm
The young outlaw's life is now come to an end
Verse 6
EB7
There's many a man with a face fine and fair
EB7
Who start out in life with a chance to be square
EA
Just like poor Billy they wander astray
EB7EEm
They'll lose their lives in the very same way
