Am DHe was born a little baby on the Appalachian Trail
E AmAt six months old he'd done three months in jail
Am DHere at the bank in his diapers and his little bare baby feet
E Am All he said was "Folks, my name is Outlaw Pete."
Chorus
CI'm Outlaw Pete!
GI'm Outjaw Pete!
AmCan you hear me?
DDoo, doo, doo, doo doo
Am DAt twenty-five a mustang pony he did steal
E AmAnd they rode around and 'round on heaven's wheel
Am DFather Jesus, I'm an outlaw killer and a thief
E AmAnd I slowed down only to saw my grief
CI'm Outlaw Pete!
GI'm Outlaw Pete!
AmCan you hear me?
DDoo, doo, doo, doo doo
F CThey cut his trail of tears across the countryside
G D EAnd where he went, women wept and men died
Am DOne night he woke from a vision of his own death
E AmSaddled his pony and rode her deep into the West
Am DMarried a Navajo girl and settled down on the res
E AmAnd as the smoke fell he held that beautiful daughter to his chest
CI'm Outlaw Pete!
GI'm Outlaw Pete!
AmCan you hear me?
DCan you hear me?
C Can you hear me?
Instrumental Break: C - F - Am - F x2
F COut of the East on an Irish stallion came Bounty Hunter Dan
G AmHis heart quickened and burned by the need to get his man
F CHe found Pete peacefully fishing by the river, pulled his gun and got the drop
G D F EHe said, "Pete, you think you've changed, but you have not."
Am DHe cocked his pistol, pulled the trigger and shot him ?let it start?
E AmHe drew a knife from his boot and pierced Dan through the heart
Am DDan smiled as he laid in his own blood dying in the sun
E AmAnd whispered in Pete's ear, "We cannot undue these things we've done."
CYou're Outlaw Pete!
GYou're Outlaw Pete!
AmCan you hear me?
DCan you hear me?
ECan you hear me?
Am DFor forty days and nights Pete rode and did not stop
E AmTill he sat high upon an icy mountain top
Am DHe watched the hawk on a desert updraft slip and slide
E AmMoved to the edge and dug his spurs deep into his pony's side
Instrumental Break: C - Am - C - Am G - Am - G - F - E - Am
Am DSome say Pete and his pony vanished over the edge
E Am Some say they remain frozen high upon that icy ledge
]Am Dm <------ Only Dm in the song. All otherThe young Navajo girl washes in the river, skin so fair D's are major
