Hair Trigger Colt .44
as Recorded by Chris LeDoux
E B A
Iâm a man whoâs goinâ to hell with heavenâs blessing
E B A
The judge said Iâm not fit to live with men
E B A
Theyâre building me a gallows in the courtyard
E B A
To make sure I donât pass this way again
E B A
My first taste of killinâ was at Vicksburg
E B A
I must have shot me a hundred men
E B A
I learned to make my livinâ with a six-gun
E B A
Iâm an outlaw now but I was a hero then
Chorus:
E B A
Lord if I had only known the misery
E B A
That gloryâs somethinâ not worth killinâ for
E B A
I wish now I had never touched the handle
B E
Of a Hairtrigger Colt .44
E B A
I was a hunted desperado
E B A
A wanted man with a price on my head
E B A
I thought that I could steal a taste of freedom
E B A
I got me a hangmanâs noose instead
Repeat Chorus
E B A
Undertaker write on my tombstone
E B A
A killer finally killed and nothinâ more
E B A
I wouldnât be here if it hadnât been for Providence
B E
And a Hairtrigger Colt .44
Repeat Chorus 2x
