The Ballad Of Arkansas Dave Rudebaugh (w/tab)

This is kinda complicated to explain but very easy to play once you understand what you're doing. I play the "bass" part on my acoustic guitar all through the verses. I only play actual chords during the chorus and at the end of the last verse. You can do whichever suits you. :) "bass part" e--------------------|----------------------------------------e B--------------------|----------------------------------------B G--------------------|----------------------------------------G D--------------------|----------------------------------------D A--0-3-0----0-3-0----|------0-2-----0-2-----------------------A E--------0--------0--|--0-3-----0-3---------------------------E ~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^ INTRO e-------------------------------------------------------------e B-------------------------------------------------------------B G-------------------------------------------------------------G D-------------------------------------------------------------D A--0-3-0---0-3-0---0-3-0---0-3-0------------------------------A E--------3-------3-------3-------3----------------------------E - - - - My daddy was an outlaw, Mom died givin' birth to me. They both left me all alone when I was on bended knee. Maybe you don't like my story, Then I suggest you turn the page. I don't need no preacher, (strum) I ain't got no soul to save. Well my name is Arkansas Dave Rudebaugh And this here is Tennessee Jack. Don't you give us any lip now boy or today'll be your last. When the bank was dry, we said goodbye And walked out to the street Where a cloud of bullets come a thunderin' down and took Tennessee to his knees. Well I stood there and watched him bleedin' Like a fool out in the rain. Didn't have time to think when I jumped Through the banks front window pane. Well I grabbed the teller in the blink of an eye, Put a colt up to his head. Said, "Careful son, don't you try to run Or tomorrow you'll wake up dead." Yeah, and me, I've got to fly just like an eagle. Free like a bird upon the wind. Hellfire and brimstone, well they're comin' down on me. - REPEAT INTRO - Mister, I was born of sin. Well I sat down in the corner And I rolled a little homegrown. Said, "If I'm gonna die today I sure as hell ain't goin' alone." Well I ran out the bank a'shootin'. I was two for two at first, Til I felt the painful sound as a bullet tore my shirt. Yeah, and me, I've got to fly just like an eagle. Free like a bird upon the wind. Hellfire and brimstone, well they're comin' down on me. - REPEAT INTRO - Mister, I was born of sin. Well I crawled back to the alley way Where I knew my horse was tied, And that's where all the legends say That Arkansas Dave Rudebaugh died, But I was in a place so far from there In a time so long ago, In the arms of a pretty little senorita On the Gulf of Mexico. Yeah, and me, I've got to fly just like an eagle. Free like a bird upon the wind. Hellfire and brimstone, well they're comin' down on me. Mister, I was born of sin. I was born of sin.
