[D] I [G] bet you never [D] heard [Am] old [D] Marshall Dillon [G] say,
[D] Miss Kitty, [C] have you [D] ever thought of running [G] away?
[D] Settling [C]
down, would [D] you marry [G] me?
[D] If I asked [C] you twice [D] and begged you pretty [G] please,
[D] She'd [C] have said [D] yes in a New [G] York [D] minute,

[G] Lighting [D] shotguns [C] for the Texas [D] Rangers.
[G] No, ask your man, [C] haven't you [D] been told,
[G]
California's full of whiskey, women and ghosts,
Sleeping out [D] all night [C] beneath the [D] desert [G] stars.
With a dream [D] in my eye and [C] a prayer in my heart.
[G] I should have been a [D] cowboy,
