[Intro]
Am
Am
Am C G
Am C E E7
[Verse]
Am
Thunder crashing up above the path
Dm
Lightning flashing through the sky
Am
Rain falling from heavens above
E E7
Another cold and lonely night
[Verse]
Am
Taking cover against a canyon wall
Dm
Laying low and out of sight
Am E E7 Am
How a man can grow tired of living just to hide
[Verse]
Am
The folks, they know me by many a name
Dm
But you can call me Henry Lee
Am
Legend has it if you've seen my face
E E7
It's the last thing that you'll see
[Verse]
Am
It doesn't look such way, no,
I'm old and gray
Dm
Far from in my prime
Am E E7 Am
I'm tired of fighting off the end of time
[Interlude]
F C G Am
F C E E7
[Verse]
Am
I've heard the word out of Eagle Pass
Dm
Ten men were asking all around
Am
If any seen two weary traveller
E E7
Making camp just out of town
[Verse]
Am
They followed me from the Rio Grande
Dm
All the way to ol' Montana
Am
Foolish me to think that
E E7 Am
I could stand a chance
[Verse]
Am
So tonight I'll stay peacefully
Dm
Knowing fully where I'm bound
Am
But come the time that
I am judged
E E7
I won't dare to make a sound
[Verse]
Am
For the blood that is on my hands
Dm
Must be paid late on down
Am E E7
Come to morning light to put me
Am
in the ground
[Chorus]
F C
Henry Lee, oh, Henry Lee
G Am Am/G
God have mercy on a sinner like thee
F C G
Come on with your hands up to the sky
F C
The pass, it rests upon your head
G Am Am/G
Us men will come forth to collect
F C G
There ain't a place left elsewhere to hide
Am C G
You're running out of time
Am C E E7
You're running out of time
[Verse]
Am
The night before the dead hang me high
Dm
Lord I had quite the dream
Am
I was standing on a heavenly plane
E E7
With my mother right next to me
[Verse]
Am
She said "Come forward son and
lay down your guns
Dm
Find the peace that you deceive
Am E Am
Let this be the final stand for Henry Lee"
