Here lies Les Moore,
D
four slugs from a forty-four,
G
no Les no more.
EG
Out in Arizona, just south of Tucson,
ED
where tumbleweeds tumble in search of a home,
there's a town they call Tombstone
G
where the brave never cry.
EDG
They live by a six-gun, by a six-gun they die.
EG
It's been a long time now since the town was a boon.
ED
The jailhouse is empty, so's the Palace Saloon.
G
Just one look will tell you that this town was real.
EDG
A secluded old dirt road leads up to Boot Hill.
EG
Walk up to the fence there and look at the view;
Dm
That's where they were hangin', eighteen-eighty-two.
G
It's easy to see where the brave men died;
EG
Rope marks on the old tree are now petrified.
EG
At night, when the moon shines so far away,
ED
It gets mighty lonesome, lookin' down on their graves.
G
There lies Billy Klen; never wanted to kill,
EG
but he's there with the guilty, way up on Boot Hill.
