Written by Joel McNeely & Seth MacFarlane
Recorded by Alan Jackson
Album: "A Million Ways to Die in the West" Soundtrack (2014)
(Capo on 1)
Intro.: | Amx 8
| Am| C  
Cowboys and pioneers come lend your eyes and ears
| Am| E  
I've got the need to testi-fy
| F| G| C| F| Em| Am  
Don't try to build your nest out in the open West
| F| D| E  
'Cause there's a million ways to die
Solo: | Amx 2
| Am| C  
Six bullets in the gut or just a papercut
| Am| E  
Too many ways to quanti-fy
| F| G| C| F| Em| Am  
They'll cut your ankle off to cure a minor cough
| F| E| Am  
'Cause there's a million ways to die
Solo: | Am| Am| Am| C| E| Am| Am  
A million ways to die
| Dm| C| F| F#| G  
It's a hundred and one in the shade or the sun, if you fall a-sleep you fry
| E| Am  
A million ways to die
| Dm| C  
You can live like a saint, but there just really ain't
| Dm| G| Am  
No a-voidin' a million ways to die
Solo: | Am| Am| Am| Bbm| Bbm| Bbm| Bbm  
| Bbm| C#  
Small pox and bigger pox and deadly tomahawks
| Bbm| F  
Or God forbid you steal a pie
| F#| G#| C#| D#m| F| Bbm  
They'll blast you into shards, for playin' good at cards
| F#| D#| F  
'Cause there's a million ways to die
Solo: | Bbmx 2
| Bbm| C#  
Out on the desert plains, it hardly ever rains
| Bbm| F  
And you can hear coyotes cry
| F#| G#| C#| D#m| F| Bbm  
They'll eat you up and then they'll shit you out a-gain
| F#| F| Bbm  
'Cause there's a million ways to die
Solo: | Bbm| Bbm| Bbm| C#| F| Bbm| Bbm  
A million ways to die
| D#  
With a whoosh and a whack, there's a knife in your back,
| C#| G#  
'cause you got a fancy tie
| F| Bbm  
A million ways to die
| D#| C#| D#  
It's a kick in the pants, but you don't have a chance of es-capin'
| G#| Bbm  
A million ways to die
Outro: | Bbm| Bbm| Bbm| F| Bb  
A million ways to die
