[Verse 1]
C F
When Liberty Valance rode to town
Em Am F G
The womenfolk would hide, they'd hide
C F
When Liberty Valance walked around
Em Am
The men would step aside
Em Gm Bm7
'Cause the point of a gun was the only law
Em F G
That Liberty understood
C Em Am
When it came to shooting straight and fast
F C
He was mighty good
[Verse 2]
C F
From out of the East a stranger came
Em Am F G
A law book in his hand, a man
C F
The kind of a man the West would need
Em Am
To tame a troubled land
Em Gm Bm7
But the point of a gun was the only law
Em F G
That Liberty understood
C Em Am
When the final showdown came to pass
F C
A law book was no good
[Chorus]
Am Em Am
Many a man would face his gun
Em F G
And many a man would fall
C Em Am
The man who shot Liberty Valance
C Em Am
He shot Liberty Valance
F C
He was the bravest of them all
[Verse 3]
C F
The love of a girl can make a man stay on
Em Am F G
When he should go, stay on
C F
Just trying to build a peaceful life
Em Am
Where love is free to grow
Em Gm Bm7
But the point of a gun was the only law
Em F G
That Liberty understood
C Em Am
When the final showdown came to pass
F C
A law book was no good
[Verse 4]
C F
Alone and afraid, she prayed that he'd
Em Am F G
Return that fateful night, oh that night
C F
When nothing she said could keep her man
Em Am
From going out to fight
Em Am
From the moment a girl gets to be full grown
Em F G
The very first thing she learns
C Em Am
When two men go out to face each other
F C
Only one returns
[Chorus]
Am Em Am
Everyone heard two shots ring out
Em F G
The shot made Liberty fall
C Em Am
The man who shot Liberty Valance
C Em Am
He shot Liberty Valance
F C
He was the bravest of them all
C Em Am
The man who shot Liberty Valance
C Em Am
He shot Liberty Valance
F C
He was the bravest of them all
