Gene Pitney /Burt Bacharach - Hal David

Capo IV

C

             C               F When Liberty Valance rode to town
	  Em        Am           F    GThe womenfolk would hide, they'd hide
	      C              FWhen Liberty Valance walked around
              Em    AmThe men would step aside 
           Em                     Gm'Cause the point of a gun was the only law
     Em           F    GThat Liberty understood
        C       Em       AmWhen it came to shooting straight and fast
       F      C  He was mighty good

                C               F From out of the East a stranger came
           Em     Am      F   GA law book in his hand, a man
              C                  FThe kind of a man the West would need
          Em       AmTo tame a troubled land
        Em                     GmBut the point of a gun was the only law
     Em           F    GThat Liberty understood
         C     Em       AmWhen the final showdown came to pass
           F      C  A law book was no good

Am     Em        AmMany a man would face his gun
    Em               F    GAnd many a man would fall
    C       Em   AmThe man who shot Liberty Valance
C   Em   AmHe  shot Liberty Valance
F                          CHe was the bravest of them all

    C                         F The love of a girl can make a man stay on
     Em        Am       F  GWhen he should go, stay on
               C                FJust trying to build a peaceful life
              Em      AmWhere love is free to grow
        Em                     GmBut the point of a gun was the only law
     Em           F    GThat Liberty understood
         C     Em       AmWhen the final showdown came to pass
           F      C  A law book was no good

           C	                   F                      Alone and afraid, she prayed that he'd
            Em      Am             F    GReturn that fateful night, oh that night 
                 C                   FWhen nothing she said could keep her man
           Em     AmFrom going out to fight
         Em                    AmFrom the moment a girl gets to be full grown
    Em                   F    GThe very first thing she learns
     C       Em        AmWhen two men go out to face each other
F          COnly one returns

Am       Em        AmEveryone heard two shots ring out
    Em                F   GThe shot made Liberty fall
    C       Em   AmThe man who shot Liberty Valance
C  Em   AmHe shot Liberty Valance
F                          CHe was the bravest of them all

    C       Em   AmThe man who shot Liberty Valance
C  Em   AmHe shot Liberty Valance
F                          CHe was the bravest of them all
