[Verse 1]
C
Early one morning
     F
With time to kill
  Am
I borrowed Jebb's rifle
    F
And sat on the hill
  C
I saw a lone rider
F
Crossing the plain
  Am
I drew a bead on him
   F
To practice my aim

[Chorus]
Dm
My brother's rifle
     G
Went off in my hand
A shot rang out
  C
Across the land
    F
The horse, he kept running
    Am
The rider was dead
  C
I hung my head
  F           C
I hung my head

[Verse 2]
C
I set off running
   F
To wake from the dream
Am
My brother's rifle
     F
Went into the sheen
C
I kept on running
  F
Into the south lands
Am
That's where they found me
   F
My head and my hands

[Chorus]
    Dm
The sheriff, he asked me
G
"Why had I run?"
And then it came to me
     C
Just what I had done
    F
And all for no reason
     Am
Just one piece of lead
  C
I hung my head
  F           C
I hung my head

[Verse 3]
C
Here in the courthouse
    F
The whole town was there
Am
I see the judge
     F
High up in his chair
   C
"Explain to the courtroom
     F
What went through your mind
    Am
And we'll ask the jury
     F
What verdict they find"

[Chorus]
Dm
I felt the power
   G
Of death over life
I orphaned his children
  C
I widowed his wife
  F
I begged their forgiveness
  Am
I wish I was dead
  C
I hung my head
  F
I hung my head
  C
I hung my head
  F           C
I hung my head

[Verse 4]
C
Early one morning
     F
With time to kill
Am
I see the gallows
F
Up on the hill
    C
And out in the distance
  F
A trick of the brain
  Am
I see a lone rider
F
Crossing the plain

[Chorus]
    Dm
And he'd come to fetch me
   G
To see what they'd done
And we'll ride together
   C
To kingdom come
  F
I pray for God's mercy
    Am
For soon I'll be dead
  C
I hung my head
  F
I hung my head
  C
I hung my head
  F
I hung my head
