CHere lies Les Moore,
Gfour slugs from a forty-four,
no Les no more. C
Out in Arizona, Amjust south of Tucson, C
where tumbleweeds tumble in searAmch of a home, G
there's a town they call Tombstone
where the brave never cry. C
They live by a six-gun, Amby a six-Ggun they die. C
It's been a long time nowAm since the town was a boon. C
The jailhouse is empty, sAmo's the Palace Saloon. G
Just one look will tell you that this town was real. C
A secluded old dirt road Amleads up Gto Boot Hill. C
Walk up to the fence therAme and look at the view; C
That's where they were hangin', eightAmeen-eighty-two. G
It's easy to see where the brave men died; C
Rope marks on the old tree areAm now petGrified. C
At night, when the moon shinesAm so far away, C
It gets mighty lonesomeAm, lookin' down on their graves. G
There lies Billy Klen; never wanted to kill, C
but he's there with the guilty, wayAm up on BGoot Hill. C
(Boot Hill.)
