Am
Barricades and brickwalls won't keep me from you
        G                                                                E/G
You can tie me down on the railroad track you can let that freight train loose
Am                                             G
Iron bars and big ole cars won't run me out of town
                                                        Am
I'll be damned if you're not my man before the sun goes down
Am E Am

C                           G
You can chain me down on the edge of town
             Am           E
You can leave me there to die
            C               G
But the railroad track will bring me back
         Am               E
when the lonesome whistle cries

Am                                   E
Barricades and brickwalls won't keep me from you
E           Am
You can tie me down on the railroad track you can let that freight train loose
Am                         E
Iron bars and big ole cars won't run me out of town
E               Am
I'll be damned if you're not my man before the sun goes down
Am E Am

C                                              G
You can lock me out you can scream and shout
              Am                         E
You can try to change your name
                  C                          G
but by the end of the day I'll take you away
          Am         E
like a force 10 hurricane

Am                                   E
Barricades and brickwalls won't keep me from you
E          Am
You can tie me down on the railroad track you can let that freight train loose
Am                         E
Iron bars and big ole cars won't run me out of town
E               Am
I'll be damned if you're not my man before the sun goes down
