[Verse 2]
[C]They cornered John [F]Hardy
[C]on [G]the Tombstone bridge
[C]He thought that [F]he [Em]was f[G]ree
'Til the [C]deputy sher[F]iff [C]came and
[G]grabbed him by the arm
Said "Johnny,
come along with me"
"Johnny, come [D]along with me"

Well, [C]I've been to the east and

Now I'm going to my hanging ground
I'm going to my [D]hanging ground
