Intro
F Dm A# F
F Dm A# F
To the rich man's bright lodges I ride in this wind
F Dm G C
On my good horse I call you my shiny Black Bess
F Dm
To the playhouse of fortune
A# F
to take the bright silver
F Dm A# F
And gold you have taken from somebody else
F Dm A# F
As we go riding in the damp foggy midnight
F Dm G C
You snort, my good pony, and you give me your best
F Dm
For you know, and I know, good horse,
A# F
'mongst the rich ones
F Dm A# F
How oftimes we go there an unwelcome guest
Harmonica part: 4 4 (4) 5 (5) 5 4
-Normal number is exhale and ( ) is inhale
F Dm A# F
I've never took food from the widows and orphans
F Dm G C
And never a hard working man I oppressed
F Dm
So take your pace easy,
A# F
for home soon like lightning
F Dm A# F
We soon will be riding, my shiny Black Bess
F Dm A# F
No fat rich man's pony can e'er overtake you
F Dm G C
And there's not a rider from the east to the west
F Dm
Could hold you a light
A# F
in this dark mist and midnight
F Dm
When the potbellied thieves
A# F
chase their unwelcome guest
Harp: 7 7 6 5 5 (5) 4
F Dm
I don't know, good horse,
A# F
as we trot in this dark here
F Dm G C
if robbing the rich is for worse or for best
F Dm A# F
They take it by stealing and lying and gambling
F Dm A# F
And I take it my way, my shiny Black Bess
F Dm A# F
I treat horses good and I'm friendly to strangers
F Dm G C
I ride and your running makes my guns talk the best
F Dm
And the rangers and deputies
A# F
are hired by the rich man
F Dm A# F
To catch me and hang me, my shining Black Bess
Harp: 6 (6) 6 6 (5) 5 7 (6) 5 4 (4) 5 (5) 5 5 (4) 4 4

6 6 5 4 (4) 5 (5) 4 6 6 (5) 4 4 (5) (6) 4
F Dm A# F
Yes, they'll catch me napping one day and they'll kill me
F Dm G C
And then I'll be gone but that won't be my end
F Dm A# F
For my guns and my saddle will always be filled
F Dm A# F
By unwelcome travellers and other brave men
F Dm A# F
And they'll take the money and spread it out equal
F Dm G C
Just like the Bible and the prophets suggest
F Dm A# F
But the men that go riding to help these poor workers
F Dm A# F
The rich will cut down like an unwelcome guest
