The Rope And The Colt by Scott Walker
The Rope And The Colt
Capo on the 3rd fret
Intro: Am D F G Am
Am G Am
I seek the man who killed my friend
G
and when we meet my life may end
F G C
my life depends upon my gun
D F
and my gun spells hope
G F Em Am
in the land where the rope and the colt are king
Am D F G Am
I swore a vow on my dyin' breath
to ride a trail that ends in death
and death could strike with a frightening jolt of a lightning bolt in
the land where the rope and the colt are king
Am F G C G
But oh my darlin' if I should die
Am F G F Em F
there's not a soul who will ever know that I loved you so
Em Am
was the reason why
The days are dust and the nights are black
but oh my darlin' if I get back
I'll trade my gun for a weddin' ring and I'll turn my hand
to the land where the rope and the colt are king
