Rhymes Of The Renegades

Written by Michael Martin Murphey

	  		        G             C              G        C 
        If You Listen Close When The Hot Wind Blows 
                 G           C          G       C 
        Down The Dust Filled Streets Of Old Tombstone 
                  G                 D 
        You Might Hear An Old Rhyme Ringin' 
               G           C               G          C 
        Of The Legends Who Walked In Their Long Black Coats 
            G              C                G  C 
        And Their High Top Boots And Their .45 Colts 
                 G                D 
        Right In To This Song I'm Singing 
                 G      D       C 
        That The Ballad Mongers Made 
                 D             G           C G C G C G D 
        Into The Rhymes Of The Renegades 
            G     C             G        C 
        Way Up In Dakota By The Deadwood Moon 
             G            C             G     C 
        Wild Bill's Ghost Haunts Number 10 Saloon 
                G              D 
        Where A Coward Came To Get Him 
                    G          C       G        C 
        Bill Held A Dead Man's Hand Of Aces And Eights 
                 G           C       G       C 
        With His Back To The Door He Tempted Fate 
            G                        D 
        Old Bill Never Knew What Hit Him 
        G            D    C 
        Gamblin' His Life Away 
               D             G 
        To The Ryhmes Of The Renegades 
            D 
        And In All Of The Towns Too Tough To Die 
              G 
        Their Dancin' Up On Boot Hill Tonight 
        D 
        Laughin' At The Movies Hollywood Made 
        C              D             G 
        Dancing To The Rhymes Of The Renegades 
            D 
        And Billy The Kid Is Laughing Right Out Loud 
           G 
        At How They Turned Him Into A Hero Somehow 
               D 
        Who'll Cast A Third Stone At His Well Known Grave 
              C              D             G 
        While Chanting These Rhymes Of The Renegades 
            G      C               G         C 
        Way Out In California By A Long Dark Bend 
              G        C              G      C 
        And A Mask And Duster Blowing In The Wind 
              G                       D 
        Black Bart Still Stands There Waitin' 
            G         C        G             C 
        And Out In El Paso The Thunder Cloud Rolls 
             G            C             G    C 
        Like John Wessley Hardin's Guns Long Ago 
                G                   D 
        And The West Still Loves To Hate Him 
                G      D        C 
        For His Legend Will Not Fade 
                 D             G 
        From The Rhymes Of The Renegades 
            G          C           G            C 
        And All Of The Robbers Who Rode Through Hell 
            G             C             G       C 
        And Danced On The Rope When The Gallows Fell 
              G                     D 
        Their Demons Are Still With Us 
                G          C       G         C 
        And The Vigilantes Do More Evil Than Good 
                  G          C           G     C 
        When They Masquarade Around Like Robin Hood 
                 G                D 
        And They Ride At Night To Get Us 
                 G         D          C 
        From The Owl Whoot Trails The Shades 
                 D             G 
        Come The Rhymes Of The Renegades 
            D 
        And Could It Be True That Some Become Outlaws 
                G 
        Holdin' On To The Last To A Long Lost Cause 
        D 
        Diggin' Their Grave With A Silver Spade 
                C          D             G 
        Singing Hymes And Rhymes To The Renegades 
             D 
        Some Call It A Mystery When Waco Burns 
             G 
        From History They Refuse To Learn 
             D 
        They Turn Their Backs 'Till The Movie Deal's Made 
        C           D             G 
        Deaf To The Rhymes Of The Renegades 
                D 
        They'll Burn Down Up To Heaven And Stay... 
                  G 
        Cause The Raid Out Laws On the Churches And Banks... 
             D 
        They Enforce The Laws That Where Tailor Made 
                   C        D             G 
        They Won't Hear The Rhymes Of The Renegades 
             D 
        They Ignore The Dark Side Of Humanity 
                G 
        They're Living The Illusion That Were All Free 
                D 
        They'll Never Know How Many Could Be Saved 
                 C               D      NC       G 
        From The Lessons And The Rhymes Of The Renegades
