Pretty Boy Floyd Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D][G][C][G][D]
[G]Wel[C]l g[G]ather round children,
a [C]story I will [G]tell
About [D]pretty boy Floyd the [G]outlaw,
Oklaho[C]ma knew him [G]well

[Verse 2]
It was [G]in the town of Shawnee
on a [C]Saturday after[G]noon
His [D]wife beside him in a [G]wagon as [C]into
town they [G]rode
[C][G][D][G]

[Verse 3]
[C][G]
And along come a deputy sheriff
in a [C]manner rather [G]rude
Using [D]vulgar words of [G]language
and his [C]wife she over[G]heard

[Verse 4]
And [G]pretty boy Floyd grabbed a long chain,
and the [C]deputy grabbed a [G]gun
And [D]in the fight that [G]followed,
he [C]laid that deputy [G]down
[C][G][D][G]

[Verse 5]
[C][G]
Then he ran through the trees and bushes
and [C]lived a life of [G]shame
Every [D]crime in Oklaho[G]ma
was [C]added to his [G]name

[Verse 6]
He [G]ran through trees and bushes
on the [C]Ca nadian River [G]shore
And [D]many a starving [G]farmer
[C]opened up his [G]door

[Verse 7]
[G]It[C][G][D][G][C]
[G]was in Oklahoma City,
it was [C]on a Christmas [G]Day
A whole [D]carload of [G]groceries
and a [C]letter that did [G]say

[Verse 8]
You [G]say that I'm an outlaw,
you [C]say that I'm a [G]thief
Well, [D]here's a Christmas [G]dinner for the
[C]families on re[G]lief
[C][G][D][G]

[Verse 9]
[C][G]
As through this life you travel,
you [C]meet some funny [G]men
Some [D]rob you with a [G]six- gun,
[C]some with a fountain [G]pen

[Verse 10]
As [G]through this life you ramble,
as [C]through this life you [G]roam
[D]You'll never see an [G]outlaw take a
[C]family from their [G]home
[C][G][D][G][C]
