 GA lonely horseman
Headin' back to the stable
 FSaid he was sorry
But his Cain was not able
To Csave us all from ourGselves.
 CMan sees the blood on every door
 GAnd hears the laughter
In the good people's hearts
 FTheir pocket's emptied
And their coats ripped apart
And the Cman makes a promise to the Gtown.

 CHappy-go-lucky's back in town
 GHappy-go-lucky's says he's fit to be tied
 FNow that his hands have done
A sin worse than pride
And the Cman makes a promise to us Gall.

Man came down from the field

A lonely horseman

Headin' back to the stable

Said he was sorry

But his Cain was not able

C G

To save us all from ourselves.

Man sees the blood on every door

And hears the laughter

In the good people's hearts

Their pocket's emptied

And their coats ripped apart

C G

And the man makes a promise to the town.

F G C Am

I wanna give you my murdering stone

G G7 C

Give you my murdering stone.

Happy-go-lucky's back in town

Happy-go-lucky's says he's fit to be tied

Now that his hands have done

A sin worse than pride

C G

And the man makes a promise to us all.

F G C Am

I wanna give you my murdering stone

G G7 C G F C G

Give you my murdering stone.

Won't you take my, won't you take my

F G C Am

And I wanna give you my murdering stone

Please take my murdering, please take my murdering,

G7 C

Please take my murdering stone.
