Em D
IN A TOWN IN ARIZONA, IN 1864
C Em
THE PARSON OF THE LOCAL CHURCH CAME KNOCKING AT MY DOOR
D
I'D NEVER BEEN TO SERVICE, I DID'NT KNOW THE MAN
C Em D C
THEN I RECOGNIZED HIM BY THE BIBLE IN HIS HAND
I FELT MY BODY TREMBLING, AS IF HE'D PULLED HIS GUN
I KNEW WHY HE WAS HERE TODAY, CAUSE I WAS ON THE RUN
I KNEW I WAS'NT LIVING RIGHT, THEN I HEARD HIM SAY
THE WAGES OF YOUR SIN IS DEATH, AND DEATH'S THE PRICE YOU'LL PAY
(Chorus)
G D
THIS IS HOW THE WEST WAS WON
C
FIRST HE CAME TO LIVE OUR PAIN
Em
THEN DIE FOR EVERYONE
G D
HOW THE WEST WAS WON
C
HIS MERCY FILLED THIS EMPTY HEART
Em
NEW LIFE HAD JUST BEGUN
I FELT MY HEART A-BREAKING, I FELL ON MY HANDS AND KNEES
I KNEW I HAD TO GET IT RIGHT, WITH ME GOD WAS'NT PLEASED
AND AS I PRAYED A SIMPLE PRAYER I FELT MY BURDEN FALL
THEN I HAD A PEACE INSIDE THAT I CAN STILL RECALL
IT'S BEEN 30 YEARS SINCE I FIRST CAME TO KNOW THE LORD
I LAID DOWN MY 6-SHOOTER WHEN HE HANDED ME HIS SWORD
THE PARSON WAVED GOODBYE AND PLACED HIS BIBLE IN MY HAND
NOW THE FOLKS IN THIS SMALL TOWN CALL ME THE PREACHERMAN
(Chorus)
THIS IS HOW THE WEST WAS WON
FIRST HE CAME TO LIVE OUR PAIN
THEN DIE FOR EVERYONE
HOW THE WEST WAS WON
HIS MERCY FILLED THIS EMPTY HEART
NEW LIFE HAD JUST BEGUN
Versión 2 - How The West Was Won (Letra y acordes)
Intro: G
Rolling like a freight train through the night
I can't get your scent off of my skin
I'm a loser girl, I'm a little short on sight
I wish I knew just how to treat you right
C
Oh, I need some medicine
I feel your body next to him
Locked like lovers in the night
G
I better prepare for another hard drinking night
What will whiskey do?
It won't make things right
Refrão:
D
Well, I better get my gun
C
Is that how the West was won?
G
Is that just what I've become?
I sure would like to think it ain't my fault
How could I blame anybody else?
I'm a fuck-up girl, that's how I live my life
I wish I knew just how to treat you right
C
Walk along these avenues
There's no drinking 'way these blues
This is how's life's wrecking balls
G
Can't control myself for what I say or what I do
Shall I end it all?
Well, it won't bring me back to you
Refrão:
D
Well, I better get my gun
C
Is that how the West was won?
G
Is that just what I've become?
C
Oo Ooooo! Oo Ooooo!
G
The train rolling off the track
C
Oo Ooooo! Oo Ooooo!
G
Anything to get you back
I'm rolling like a freight train through the night
I can't get your scent off of my skin
Refrão 2x:
D
Well, I better get my gun
C
Is that how the West was won?
G
Is that just what I've become?
(Repete 2x)
C
Oo Ooooo! Oo Ooooo!
G
The train rolling off the track
C
Oo Ooooo! Oo Ooooo!
G
Anything to get you back
