Tom: E E E [Verse 1] E I made the law believe I'm a man I'd never been E I made a priest believe that I had never sinned E I killed in self-defense the judge said "hang 'em high" E Broke right out of jail rode into the evening sky [Pre-Chorus] A Became a legend from the barrel of a gun A You rest in peace while there's gypsies on the run B A Now dead men get your respect B A I am the living proof B A Oh branded on my soul [Chorus] E G A My gun called justice E G A A gun called justice [Verse 2] E Now darling don't you fret I promise to return E I'll bring back money that those good folks went to earn E Poets rob loneliness, great painters always starve E The quick draw are the showcase not just that we carve [Pre-Chorus] A Now I became a legend from my smoking gun A I cheat the hangman 'cause I'm always on the run B A All Boot Hill does respect me B A 'cause I'm the fastest one B A Branded on my soul [Chorus] E G A My gun called justice E G A A gun called justice [Instrumental] E G A x8 [Pre-Chorus] A Became a legend from the barrel of a gun A You get your rest tonight while I have got to run B A B A Dead men all respect me 'cause I'm the fastest one B A Branded on my soul [Chorus] E G A My gun called justice E G A My gun called justice E G A A gun called justice E G A my gun called justice E G A Hey yeah, I said hey yeah E G A My gun called justice
