There was a man whose deeds were dark as night
                                      B7
And quite by chance he rode into the light
D                   A             D            A
A man wild as the dust devil with no place to run 
B7                             E
Livin' by his wits and by his gun
A
He met a girl like none he had ever known 
                                         B7
She cared not for the wild oats he had sown
D                   A            D               A
And so he laid his gun down and set his spirit free 
B7                          E     RIFF TO A
Began living in respectability
A
But his old ways of thinkin' wouldn't die 
                                        B7
Could not forget the old creed he lived by
 D                         A                    D                A
And the good and bad and right and wrong kept fightin' for his soul
B7                       E                  A
Till his heart and mind both went out of control

A
But now the old saloon had lost its spell 
                                       B7
What once was laughter now was living hell
 D               A                    D                     A
And the hookers guns and drinkin' in his life were out of place
B7                                  E    RIFF TO A
And in his mind he saw an angel's face
A
So he burned all his bridges in a day 
                                        B7
And the devil deeds were done and laid away
 D                   A             D                  A
And he rode out a better man than when he first rode in
 B7                     E             A
And the angel got the bad man in the end
