Narrow Escape

Intro:
G D Am C

G
Lejos and Mary lay dazed in Liula
                     C
Dreaming of tropical signs
   D
As Lejos lay sleeping

She knelt over him weeping
            C             G
Feeling the weight of his crimes
C           G                
It seems he cut a man down in a 
             G7
Tennessee town
And he's just licking his wounds for
   C
 a spell
       D
But it won't take long for the boys 
to catch on
                               D7
And soon he'll be running like hell

           G
Well their love it was long
It was gentle and strong, and for a 
                      C
while she forgot his sins
        D
And she kissed him for love

She kissed him for luck
                   C            G
She kissed him one time for the kid
G
Well they came in without warning, 
in the hours before morning
G7                                
 They come-a blasting through the 
            C
windows and walls
             D
And when the smoke it did clear

Somebody cried out he ain't here
                                D7
Killed ourselves a woman that's all
