from the songs album Into The Purple Valley
(woody guthrie)
(e) - (a) - (b7) capo on 1
(e) have you seen that (a) vigilante (e) man ?
(a) have you (e) seen that (a) vigilante (e) man ?
(a) have you (e) seen that (a) vigilante (e) man ?
I've been hearin' his (b7) name all over the (e) land.
Rainy nights down in the engine house,
Sleepin' just as still as a mouse,
A man came along and he chased us out in the rain.
Was that a vigilante man ?
Well, i rambled around from town to town,
Now, i rambled around from town to town,
And they herded us around like a wild herd of cattle.
Was that the vigilante man ?
Well, why does a vigilante man ?
Tell me why does a vigilante man ?
Carry that sawed-off shot-gun in his hand ?
Would he shoot his brother and sister down ?
Have you seen that vigilante man ?
Have you seen that vigilante man ?
Have you seen that vigilante man ?
I've been hearin' his name all over the land.
