Intro: G G/F# Em 
       G      Em 
       G   G7 C 
       Em     A C G D/F#

          Em             G          
They were Doolin, Doolin-Dalton
        Em              G       G7
High or low, it was the same
     C                    Em 
Easy money, and faithless women
        A      C        G       B7
Red eye whiskey for the pain.

Em                             G               B7
Go down little Dalton, it must be God's will
Em                        G              G7
Two brothers lyin dead in Coffeeville.
C                           Em 
Two voices call to you from where they stood,
A                                    C       G
"Lay down your lawbooks now, they're no damn good."

Better keep on movin, Doolin-Dalton
Till your shadow sets you free.
And if you're fast, and if you're lucky,
You will never see that hangin tree.

         Bm             G              C      C/B
Well the towns lay out across the dusty plain
     Am                                Em 
Like graveyards filled with tombstones waitin for the names
      G                 G7              C       C/B
And a man could use his back or use his brains
    Am                                   D           B7
But some just went stir-crazy Lord cause nothin ever changed

Till Bill Doolin met Bill Dalton
Be was workin cheap, just buyin time
And then he laughed and said I'm goin
And so he left that peaceful life behind.

Outro: G D/F# Em G C C/B Am7 D9 E

***
from DOOLIN-DALTON/DESPERADO(REPRISE):

Well the stage was set, the sun was sinkin lowdown.
As they came to town to face another showdown.
The lawmen cleared the people from the street.
All you bloodthirsty bystanders, will you try to find a seat?

Watchin Doolin, Doolin-Dalton.
Bigh or low, it's all the same.
Easy money, faithless women.
You will never kill the pain.

Go down little doolin, don't you wonder why.
Sooner or later we all have to die.
Sooner or later, that's a stone cold fact.
Four men ride out and only three ride back.

Eagles - Doolin Dalton / Desperado (1974)
Most favorite song of Eagles. This is true country-rock and Eagles. It would be more great video quality than previously posted. Jackson Browne and JD Souther appear on the inserted Desperado promotion film. It's a shame they stopped playing this song on stage.

Doolin - Dalton Eagles cover
This Eagles song refers to the Doolin-Dalton gang that existed from approx. 1893 to 1898. They mainly robbed banks and trains. A major factor in their demise was a decision to 'out do' anything Jesse James had done by robbing two banks at once in broad daylight at Coffeyville, Kansas. It was a fatal mistake. To find out more you can google 'doolin dalton'. I had to base this song around the harmonica - so I couldn't tune down as I normally do. I'm really struggling on some of the higher ...
