Pretty Boy Floyd Chords by Woody Guthrie

[F#m] _ _ _ [B] _ _ [F#] _ [B] _ _
[C#] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ If you'll gather round me children, [B] a story I [F#] will tell
[C#] About pretty boy Floyd, an outlaw, Oklahoma [F#] knew him well.
_ _ _ _ It was in the town _ of Shawnee [B] a Saturday [F#]
afternoon,
His wife [C#] beside him in his wagon as into town [F#] they rode. _ _ _
_ There a deputy sheriff _ approached [B] him in a manner [F#] rather rude,
_ [C#] Vulgar words of anger in his wife she [F#] _ overheard.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Pretty boy grabbed a log chain [B] and the deputy grabbed [F#] his gun,
[B] In the fight [F#] that followed [C#] he laid that [F#] deputy down.
_ _ Then he took to the trees _ _ and timber [B] to live a life [F#] of shame,
_ [B] Every crime in [F#] Oklahoma [C#] was added to [F#] his _ name. _ _
_ _ _ But a many a _ starving farmer [B] the same old [F#] story told,
How [C#] the outlaw paid their mortgage and saved their little [F#]
home.
_ _ _ _ Others tell you about a stranger [B] that come to beg [F#] a meal,
[C#]
Underneath his napkin left a thousand [F#] dollar bill. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ It was in Oklahoma _ _ _ City, _ it [B] was on a Christmas [F#]
day,
There [C#] was a whole carload of groceries come with a note [F#] to say,
_ _ Well you say that I'm an outlaw, [B] you say that [F#] I'm a thief,
[C#]
Here's a Christmas dinner for the families [F#] on relief. _
_ _ _ _ Yes as through this world _ _ I've wandered, I've [B] seen lots of [F#] funny men,
Some [C#] will rob you with a six gun and some with a [F#] fountain pen, _ _
And as through your life _ you [F#m] travel, _ [F#] _ [B] yes as through your [F#] life you roam, _
_ _ [C#] You will never see an outlaw _ drive a family [F#] from their home.
