[Verse 1]
[Am]I have a reputation
that's known throughout the land
They [F]say I'm faster on the draw
than any liv[G]ing [Am]man
They call me the bad man,
they say I kill for fun
They [F]say the only thing I know
is how to [G]use a [Am]gun
But they don't know [C]the reason
they branded me [Am]as bad
It started [F]many years ago
when I [G]was just [Am]a lad
I rode into a cattle town,
a boy of twenty -three
So [F]young as yet that very day
I carved [G]my destiny
[Am]I walked into the town saloon
that sad and fateful day
And [F]I began to gamble
to pass the [G]time away
[Am]I thought I'[C]d play a hand or two
and hit the trail again
[Am]But lady[F] luck was with me
and I began [G]to [Am]win
The dealer kept on dealing,
the stakes were getting high
And [F]pretty soon there was no one left
but an old cow[G]boy and [Am]I
The minute seemed like hours,
you couldn't hear a sound
We [F]bet and raised
until we'd laid all our [G]money down[Am]
The cowboy [C]smiled and showed his hand,
three aces he [Am]did hold
But I [F]laid down a royal flush
and reached [G]to claim [Am]my gold
The cowboy stood and faced me,
his hands hung at his hips
A [F]look of hate was in his eyes,
a smile had [G]left his [Am]lips
He said, young man, slap leather,
I'm known for miles around
To [F]keep my reputation up,
I've got to [G]gun you [Am]down
With the lightning [C]speed we
drew and fired,
one life to be the [Am]cost
The [F]cowboy crumbled to the floor,
his [G]reputation [Am]lost
Now years have come and years have gone,
and many men have died
He's [F]tried his luck
and hoped he'd be the
fastest gun [G]alive[Am]
And in my many fights to live,
I wonder if I've won
I'm [F]known by all as Batman,
they think I [G]kill for [Am]fun
Someday I'll [C]meet a cowboy
whose speed will meet [Am]the test
And that [F]will end the saga
of The [G]Bad Man of the [Am]West
