[Em] I was rich [D] but [Em] a ramblin' [G] boy

[C] There I married a pretty [Em] little wife
And I [D] loved her dearer than I loved [C] my life
And I [Em] loved her [D] dearer than I loved [G] my life
She [Em]
was pretty [D] but [G]
neat and gay
She caused [Em] me to rob [D] the road [G] highway
I robbed [A] it, [C] yes, I [Em] did it fair
And [D] I made myself ten [C] thousand there
And [Em] I made myself [D]
ten [B] [G] thousand there
[Em] [D]

Plenty of [Em] drying goods [D]
for to [G] carry me through
My pistol [Em] of storm, [D]
