E
I can still recall the day
B
A
E
my Uncle Chester caught religion.
The Reverend took him swimming
B
and the devil must have drowned.
E
B
Uncle Chester, he was big,
A
he was mean and even vicious,
E
but he didn't stand a chance
B
E
against the lawman Reverend Brown.
B
The lawman, Reverend Brown,
A
E
was the sheriff of Pitkin County.
His hair was long and black
B
like the dusty suit he wore.
E
B
And in the pockets of his coat
A
E
were the tools of his professions,
a tattered old black Bible
B
E
and a loaded .44.
A
And all across the mountain
E
you could hear the children singing
About the peace down in the valley
B
like there never was before
E
B
The reverend had a special way
A
E
for healing wicked sinners
He only had to shoot a few
B
E
B
E
A
to save a whole lot more
E
B
I don't know where he came from
A
but I do know where he's gone
E
He's gone to meet his maker
B
and to guard the master's throne
E
B
And to keep a home fire burning
A
E
for the ones lost in the night
The kind of fire he lit in me
B
E
to help me see the light
A
And all across the mountain
E
you could hear the children singing
About the peace down in the valley
B
like there never was before
E
B
The reverend had a special way
A
E
for healin' wicked sinners
He only had to shoot a few
B
E
to save a whole lot more
B
The lawman helped the reverend
A
when he taught the old -time gospel
E
It was heaven, it was prison,
B
E
or the loaded .44
A
All across the mountain
E
you could hear the children singing
About the peace down in the valley
B
like there never was before
E
B
The reverend had a special way
A
E
for healing wicked sins
He only had to shoot a few
B
to save a whole lot more
