G                  C              G 
Well a man come on the 6 o’clock news, 
G                     D                   G 
Said somebody’s been shot, somebody’s been abused, 
G 
Somebody blew up a building, 
C                G 
Somebody stole a car, 
G 
Somebody got away. 
D                        G           
Somebody didn’t get too far…yeah

They didn’t get too far. 

verse 2 
G                       C               G 
Grandpappy told my pappy, back in my day, son; 
G                    D                    G 
A man had to answer for the wicked that he done. 
G 
Take all the rope in Texas, 
C                      G 
Find a tall oak tree, round up all them bad boys, 
D                       G 
Hang them high in the street. 
C         D          G 
For all the world to see. 

Chorus

Justice is the one thing you should always find.

You got to saddle up your boys. 
D                      G 
You got to draw a hard line. 
D                         C                      G 
When the gun smoke settles, we’ll sing a victory tune. 
C            G        D             G 
We’ll all meet back at the local saloon. 
G                       C                  G 
We’ll raise up our glasses against evil forces.

Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses.

G                     C                G 
We got too many gangsters doing dirty deeds. 
D                             G 
We got too much corruption, too much crime in the streets. 
G                         C                            G 
It’s time the long arm of the law put a few more in the ground. 
G                           D                     G 
Send em’ all to their maker and he’ll settle em’ down.

You can bet, he’ll set em’ down- Cause,
