[Verse]
D
I was born out west a ways
C
Beneath a cloudy sky
G
My momma called me Lightning
G C D
She saw rain clouds in my eyes
D
My daddy called me in one day
C
When I was very young
G
Said come and sit beside me boy
G C D
Listen here my son

[Verse]
D
When I was just your age he said
C
My daddy done me wrong
G
And now it's been twenty years
G C D
Ain't seen him in so long
D
I remember me the day he left
C
That man he seemed so tall
G
His words echoed in my head like
G C D
Gunshots off a canyon wall

[Chorus]
C
My daddy was a desperado
D
Left me footprints hard to follow
C D
There's some sins son that you just can't atone
C
The right path ain't the easiest
G
So you best be right with Jesus
C G A
And it's every cowboy's right to roam
C G
So you take this gun my only son
D
And you'll never be alone

[Verse]
D
That day my daddy promised
C
That he would do his best
G
Took granddaddy's gun and locked it
G C D
In a wooden chest
D
As the years they passed on by
C
He taught me to shoot and ride
G
My momma she always called me
G C D
Apple of my daddy's eye
