[Intro]

[Verse 1]
C C/G C C/G Am Am/E Am Am/E Am Am/E Am Am/E
To the town of Agua Fria rode a stranger one fine day
C C/G C C/G C C/G Am Am/E Am Am/E
Hardly spoke to folks around him, didn't have too much to say
F C
No one dared to ask his business, no one dared to make a slip
C Am
For the stranger there amongst them had a big iron on his hip
F C
Big iron on his hip
[Verse 2]
C Am
It was early in the morning when he rode into town
C Am
He came riding from the south side, slowly lookin' all around
F C
"He's an outlaw, loose and runnin'," came the whisper from each lip
C Am
And he's there to do some business with the big iron on his hip
F C
Big iron on his hip
[Verse 3]
C Am
In the town there lived an outlaw by the name of Texas Red
C Am
Many men had tried to take him and that many men were dead
F C
He was vicious and a killer, though a youth of 24
C Am
And the notches on his pistol numbered one and 19 more
F C
One and 19 more
[Verse 4]
C Am
Now the stranger started talkin', made it plain to folks around
C Am
Was an Arizona ranger, wouldn't be too long in town
F C
He came there to take an outlaw back alive or maybe dead
C Am
And he said it didn't matter, he was after Texas Red
F C
After Texas Red
[Verse 5]
C Am
Wasn't long before this story was relayed to Texas Red
C Am
But the outlaw didn't worry, men that tried before were dead
F C
20 men had tried to take him, 20 men had made a slip
