THE BALLAD OF PALADIN
As recorded by Johnny Western
Written by Johnny Western, Richard Boone and S. Rolfe
[C] Have gun will travel, reads the [G] card of a [C] man
A knight without armor in a [G] savage [C] land
His [Am] fast gun hire, heeds the [F] calling [C] wind
A [F] soldier of fortune, is a man called --- Pal-a-[C] din
[C] Paladin, Paladin, [F] where do you [C] roam
Paladin, Paladin, [F] far, far from [C] home
[C] He travels on to where-[G] ever he [C] must
A chess knight of silver is his [G] badge of [C] trust
There are [Am] campfire legends that the [F] plainsmen [C] sing
Of the [F] man with the gun, of the man called --- Pal-a-[C] din.
[C] Paladin, Paladin, [F] where do you [C] roam
Paladin, Paladin, [F] far, far from [C] home
[F] Far from [C] home, [F] far from [C] home.
