D G D A
Billy Gray rode into Gantry, way back in '83
G D A
There he first met with young Sara McRae
D G D A7
The wild rose of morning, that pale flower of dawning
G D A7 D
Heralded the springtime in Billy's life that day
D G D A
Sara she could not see the daylight of reality
G D A
In her young eyes Billy bore not a flaw
D G D A7
Knowing not her chosen one, he was a hired gun
G D A7 D
Wanted in Kansas City by the law
D G D A
Then one day a tall man came riding from the badlands
G D A
That lay to the north of New Mexico
D G D A7
He was overheard to say he was looking for Bill Gray
G D A7 D
'A wanted man and a dangerous outlaw'
D G D A
The news it came creeping while Billy, he lay sleeping
G D A
There in the Clarendon bar and hotel
D G D A7
He ran to the old church that lies on the outskirts
G D A7 D
Thinking he'd climb to the old steeple bell
D G D A
But a rifle ball came flying, face down he lay dying
G D A
There in the dust of the road where he lay
D G D A7
Sara ran to him, she was cursing the lawman
G D A7 D
Poor girl knew no reason, except that he'd been slain
Instrumental ( G Harp sounds good!)
D G D A
Sara still lives in that old white frame-house
G D A
Where she first met Billy, some forty years ago
D G D A7
But the wild rose of morning has faded with the dawning
G D A7 D
Of each day of sorrow, the long years have sown
D G D A
And written on a stone where the dusty winds have long blown
G D A
Eighteen words… to a passing world say:
D G D A7
'True love knows no season, no rhyme nor no reason
G D A7 D
Justice is cold as the Granger County clay'
