GHere lies Les Moore,
Dfour slugs from a forty-four,
no Les no more. G
Out in Arizona, Emjust south of Tucson, G
where tumbleweeds tumble in searEmch of a home, D
there's a town they call Tombstone
where the brave never cry. G
They live by a six-gun, Emby a six-Dgun they die. G
It's been a long time nowEm since the town was a boon. G
The jailhouse is empty, sEmo's the Palace Saloon. D
Just one look will tell you that this town was real. G
A secluded old dirt road Emleads up Dto Boot Hill. G
Walk up to the fence therEme and look at the view; G
That's where they were hangin', eightEmeen-eighty-two. D
It's easy to see where the brave men died; G
Rope marks on the old tree areEm now petDrified. G
At night, when the moon shinesEm so far away, G
It gets mighty lonesomeEm, lookin' down on their graves. D
There lies Billy Klen; never wanted to kill, G
but he's there with the guilty, wayEm up on BDoot Hill. G
(Boot Hill.)
