Arkansas Dave Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[C]He rode up on a [G]winter [C]day
Steam risin' off a streak [G]face [C]bay
[F]Said you probably [C]know my [F]name
[C]If you don't it's [G]Arkansas [C]Dave

[Verse 2]
He talked of fifteen [G]years [C]ago
And how he got [G]the bay he rode
[C]He said he kil[F]led a man in Ohi[C]o[F]
First [C]man he killed, first [G]horse [C]he stole
It was a [F]long

[Verse 3]
road for [C]Arkansas [F]Dave
He [C]shot and left him [G]where he [C]laid
He said he'd [F]never forget
that [C]winter [F]day
[C]He rode off on a [G]streak faced [C]bay

[Verse 4]
I stood [C]up and I [G]shook his [C]hand
Told no one that [G]I knew this [C]man
Star[F]ted thinkin' [C]of [F]a plan
Bout [C]how I'd deal him [G]his last [C]hand
Didn't take him long [G]to
come un[C]wound
He jumped up and gunned [G]two men [C]down
[F]Ran outside [C]to leave [F]the town
But ole [C]bay was nowhere [G]to be [C]found
[D]

[Verse 5]
I head out with my [A]forty-four
An[D]d And when he walked
back [A]through [D]the door
I [G]shot till I could [D]shoot no [G]more
[D]And Dave Rudabough fell [A]to [D]the floor

[Verse 6]
It was [G]the end of the road
for [D]Arkansas [G]Dave
[D]I shot and left him where he laid
I'll [G]never forget that [D]winter [G]day
[D]I rode off on a [A]streak faced [D]bay
No I'll [G]never forget that [D]winter [G]day
When [D]I rode home on Daddy's
[A]streak face [D]bay

[Outro 1]
