Modern Day Bonnie And Clyde

            D
Well it's a long way to Richmond,
G7                D
Rollin' North on 95.
       G7
With a redhead ridin' shotgun,
                   D
And a pistol by my side.
A7sus                   A7
Tearing down that highway,
       C          G7         D
Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde.


   D
We met at a truckstop,
G7                 D
Johnson City, Tennessee.
      G                     G7
I was gassing up my Firebird,
                         D
When I heard her callin' me.
            A7sus       A7
Said "Which way are you headed boy?
C      G              D
Do you need some company?"


           D
She had me stopping at a Kwik-Mart,
G7                      D
Before we made it outta town.
G
Next thing she was runnin' at me,
                              D
Tellin' me to lay that hammer down.
                 A7sus       A7
'Cause there's a man right behind me,
C         G               D
Doin' his best to slow me down.


                 D
Yeah, and it's a long way to Richmond,
G                 D
Rollin' North on 95.
       G
With a redhead ridin' shotgun,
G7                 D
And a pistol by my side.
A7sus             A7
Tearing down that highway,
       C          G          D
Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde.

        D
Well we pulled up to a motel,
G7                   D
In the middle of the night.
        G
We were counting all the money,
                        D
Smoking stolen Marlboro Lights.
         A7
Lord, we never saw 'em comin'
C         G                D
'Til they read us both our rights.


                 D
Yeah, and it's a long way to Richmond,
G7                D
Rollin' North on 95.
       G
With a sheriff right beside me,
       G7            D
Pistol pointed at my side.
       A7
Such a disappointing ending,
         C          G          D
For this modern day Bonnie and Clyde.
