Song: The Rounder Tab

(Tim Stafford-Wayne Taylor/Daniel House Music, BMI)
Capo 2nd Fret
Intro  (Em, C, G, D, Em, C, D, G, Em, C, G, D, Em, C, D, C)

      G             D            G                         C
V1) Beneath a western sky on the way to Santa Fe
  D                   Am
I met up with a rounder
 G                                     C 
claimed he rode with Jesse James
G                      D             C
They robbed the Glendale Train

 V2) As we crossed the Texas plains 
not a blessed word was said
Till we reached Amarillo, then he raised his weary head
He said, “Son, I’ll soon be dead”

V3) I have so much to tell you, but I’m left so little time
There’s a place out in the Badlands
about a two day ride
It’s not so hard to find

     D                         Am              C                    D 
Br) Frank and Jesse holed up in a cave for forty days
D                               Am        G                      C
Took all that they could carry, then hid the rest away
Bm                        C                G                     D
Frank grew tired of living like a dog out on the run
Bm                        C               G                               D
and Jesse soon fell victim to a blast from Bob Ford’s gun
Am       C           D
Now I’m the only one


V4)His voice it faltered there and he soon passed away
I laid him six feet under 
that hard West Texas clay
And then I rode away

V5)
 I found everything he told me near the place they call Red Cloud
With the gold I found a letter
when I read I cried out loud
It said, “Your momma would be proud”

alt V)
 Some men are born to freedom
While others come to fame
And some will leave with nothing but a marker and their name
In the end it’s all the same
