Verse:
C                                  Fadd9
Frontier town, home of the western hero
C                                     Fadd9
Frontier justice, dealt with the iron hand

Chorus:
F         Fmaj7             F
He wore a long  coat to the ground
F           Fmaj7             F
He wore big boots that made a sound
F           Fmaj7          G
He wore his six gun on his hip
                   F
But now he doesn't carry it

Verse:
Sure enough, he was a western hero
On the deck, sighting an old Jap zero

Chorus:
And on the Shores of Normandy
He fought for you, he fought for me
Across the land and on the sea
But now he's just a memory

Bridge:
E 
And in the distance, the rocket's red glare 
Am
The bombs burst in the air
F                           G 
This time we're never going back
E                    Am
Through the years he changed somehow
     F
He's different now
     G
He's different now

Verse:
Open Fire, here comes a western hero
Standing there, big money in his hand
Sure enough, he was a western hero
Sure enough, he was a western hero
Sure enough
