Now when Billy the Kid

[Verse 5]
It was [G]on one black night
that poor Billy died
He [D]said to his friends, "I'm not [G]sat[D]isfied

that I've put bul[C]lets through
[G]And sheriff Pat Garrett's
[A]gonna [D]make [G]twenty-two"
[D]Well,

[Verse 6]
[G]Wel[D]l,[G]
this is how Billy the Kid met his fate
A [D]big moon was shining
and the [G]hour [D]was late
[G]Shot down by Pat Garrett,
[D]Silver [G]City's [C]best [G]friend
The poor outlaw's life [D]have reached
its [G]sad end
