Well about the time my daddy left to fight the big war
B E
Saw my first pistol in the general store
A E
In the general store when I was thirteen
B E
Thought it was the finest thing I ever had seen
A E
I asked if I could have one when I grew up
B E
Mama dropped a dozen eggs and she really blew up
A E
She really blew up and I didn't understand
B E
Mama said the pistol is the Devil's right hand
CHORUS:
A E
She really blew up and I didn't understand
B E
Mama said the pistol is the Devil's right hand
A E
The Devil's right hand, the Devil's right hand
B E
Mama said the pistol is the Devil's right hand
E A E
My very first pistol was a cap 'n' ball Colt
B E
Shoots as fast as lightning but it loads a might slow
A E
It loads a might slow and I soon found out
B E
It can get you into trouble but it can't get you out
A E
Then I went and bought myself a Colt .45
B E
Called a "Peacemaker" but I didn't know why
A E
I never knew why and I didn't understand

B E
'Cause Mama said the pistol is the Devil's right hand
CHORUS:
A E
I never knew why and I didn't understand
B E
Mama said the pistol is the Devil's right hand
A E
The Devil's right hand, the Devil's right hand
B E
Mama said the pistol is the Devil's right hand
E A E
I got into a card game in a company town
B E
Caught a minor cheatin' and I shot the dog down
A E
Shot the dog down, watched the dog fall
B E
Never touched his holster, never had a chance to draw
A E
The Trial was in the morning and they drug me out of bed
B E
Asked me how I pleaded, not guilty I said
A E
Not guilty I said, you've got the wrong man
B E
Nothin' touched the trigger but the Devil's right hand
CHORUS:
A E
Not guilty I said, you've got the wrong man
B E
Nothin' touched the trigger but the Devil's right hand
A E
The Devil'sright hand, the Devil's right hand
B E
Nothin' touched the trigger but the Devil's right hand
