Back in the 18th Century

when the west is wild as the eye could see
G Bb C D
Pack up the wife and the wagon get some land for free.
G Bb C D
A hellish trail to liberty
Eb D
and ohh, It’s a good ol' day to day to die
Bb A G
but I ain't gonna die today.
[Chorus]
G D G (x2)
[Verse 2]
G Bb C D
Dangerous road I don’t think its not
G Bb C D
where the sun is blazin' and my steel is hot
G Bb C D
the bad guys carry rounds and my guns are out,
G Bb C D
I go clack clack clack
G Bb C D
so they can stretch out.
Eb D
In a box, well it’s a good ol' day to day to die
Bb A G
but I ain't gonna die today.

G Bb C D
Man in black approaches from the east,
G Bb C D
I’ll take your wife and your wagon and your family

You're never gonna get out of here alive

So up under this chin I place my .45
Eb D
I said lord, uh it’s a good ol' day to day to die
Bb A G
But I ain't gonna die today, lord!
