[Verse 1]
       C             G          
Well I shot a man in Louisville 
Am              F
about one year ago,
       C             G            
He was looking at me cockeyed, and
   Am                F
 I guess it goes to show,
          C             G         
that Jack Daniels and a pistol can
      Am        G   F
 be a powerful enemy,

C                   G            
especially when the whiskey's 
    F
inside me.


[Verse 2]
    C                 G           
And robbed a bank in Tulsa running
           Am       F
 from the Federal B.I.
        C                       G 
I don't mind telling you that I 
                     Am         
shot the guard just to watch him 
  F
die.
            C               G     
And they're still hot on my trail 
      Am             G        F
as my drunk driving hugs the rail
     C                        G   
that runs south bound all the way 
      F
down 55.


[Chorus]
          C                    
Well, I'm prison bound, they're 
       G            Am         
gonna send me down forever and a 
    F
day.
       C                           
So I'm jumping in my truck and I'm 
G        F
headed down old Mexico way.

[Verse 3]
   C               G               
In Salt Lake City, Utah, there's a 
Am             F
warrant on my head
      C         G           
for a girl in a bordello that 
  Am                F
someone left for dead,
              C            G  
and though it wasn't me, I must 
                    Am       G    
admit that I was in town at the 
  F
time
          C             G         
Drunk and shooting guns beneath 
         F
the desert sky.


[Verse 4]
      Am            C             
I got five hundred miles until I'm
  F
 free.
       C           G              
When I hit the Rio Grande, John 
        Am             F
Law can't do nothing to me.
      C            G              
I got five hundred dollars and 
  Am             F
five bullets in my gun
         C             G          
and if I have to, I'll unload 
  F
every one.
