Verse 1
C
F
There's a home in Indiana,
C
G
C
where once was shared great joy.
When parents loved and worshipped
F
C
their curly -headed boy,
Was very soon decided
F
C
he'd take his father's name,
F
C
And following his footsteps,
G
C
they wished on him great fame.
F
C
His son grew into manhood
G
C
and started out to roam.
And much against his parents,
F
C
he left his friends and home.
He journeyed through the city,
F
C
to him fate did resign.
F
C
His son led to his downfall,
G
C
he committed his first crime.
F
C
The law was sun upon him,
G
C
he landed up in jail.
His friends could not get pardon,
F
C
nor could they go his bail.
One night he broke for freedom
F
C
by using a wooden gun.
F
C
His guard was easily buffaloed,
G
C
his clever trick had won.
F
C
And then began the manhunt,
G
C
the greatest ever known.
With plots and plans to trap him,
F
C
with brains and skill were shown.
His draw was fast as lightning,
F
C
rewards stood on his head.
F
C
Go bring in this great criminal,
G
C
whether he be alive or dead.
F
C
It happened in Chicago,
G
C
thus noted for its fame.
The home of noted gangsters,
F
C
where many a man is slain.
He was taking in a picture,
F
C
when a woman tipped the law.
F
C
Three bullets pierced his body,
G
C
he had not a chance to draw.
F
C
The great man hunt is ended,
G
C
the innocent must pay.
When they have to stop the bullets,
F
C
that chance to go astray.
So young men take my warning,
F
C
this crime it does not pay.
F
C
And think of Johnny Dillinger,
G
when he met his fatal day.
