I can still recall the day

against the lawman Reverend Brown.

The lawman, Reverend Brown,

was the sheriff of Pitkin County.
His hair was long and black

like the dusty suit he wore.

And in the pockets of his coat
G
D
were the tools of his professions,
a tattered old black Bible

and a loaded .44.

And all across the mountain
D
you could hear the children singing
About the peace down in the valley
A
like there never was before

The reverend had a special way
G

for healing wicked sinners
He only had to shoot a few

I don't know where he came from

He's gone to meet his maker
A
and to guard the master's throne
D

And to keep a home fire burning
G

for the ones lost in the night
The kind of fire he lit in me
A

to help me see the light

you could hear the children singing
About the peace down in the valley

like there never was before

when he taught the old -time gospel

It was heaven, it was prison,

you could hear the children singing
About the peace down in the valley
A
like there never was before
D
