Hoo-woo-

Gbm			        Bm
Well this is how it starts two lovers in the dark
Db
On the run from the one that they call SheRiff Sparks
Gbm			        Bm
Six guns by the side and bullets ‘round their waist
Db
Two shots to the sky signal sound for the chase
Gbm			        Bm
The safe was nearly empty and they were nearly free
Db
But was seen by the wood eye of the mean Billy Greene
Gbm			        Bm
And he screamed at the top of his lungs “they’re on the run!
Db
It’s the two outsiders grab yer holsters and yer guns!”

A                           Bm
I said I wish that we could stay here
                        A
But I fear our time has come
			   Bm
Oh we can ride out in the darkness
		    A
Chasing the rising sun
                            Bm
We gotta pack our bags this instant
				      A
We’re heading southbound to the next town
			   Bm
And if we arrive there so safely
	     Db      A A A	Bm
Baby you can lay me down
       A A A	Bm
Lay me down
       A A A	Bm
Lay me down
       A A A	Bm
Lay me down

Gbm			        Bm
Well it’s the story of the two always on the move
Db
They got nothing left to lose ‘cept their guns and they wounds
Gbm			        Bm
Now they’re crossing borders sheRiff’s posse on their tail
Db
They rather die together than be stuck up in a cell
Gbm			        Bm
They drank up all the whiskey and they partied every night
Db
Like it could be the last the bounty said to shoot on sight
Gbm			        Bm
So they chased the endless summer though it came with a price
Db
They wouldn’t stop running ‘til they found a paradise
Gbm			        Bm
But the SheRiff finally found ‘em with his eyes seeing red
Db
So the lovers had to shoot him down and fill him full of lead
Gbm			        Bm
They were finally free to find a place to lay their head
Db
And when they finally did he looked at her and then he said:

A                           Bm
I said I wish that we could stay here
                        A
But I fear our time has come
			    Bm
Oh we can walk down to the ocean
		    A
Chasing the rising sun
                            Bm
We gotta pack our bags this instant
			      A
No more running from town to town
			   Bm
And if we arrive there so safely
	     Db      A A A	Bm
Baby you can lay me down
       A A A	Bm
Lay me down
       A A A	Bm
Lay me down
       A A A	Bm
Lay me down

A A A 						Bm
Well you’re my green eyed girl and I’ve been running round with you
A A A 			       Bm
It’s the afternoon and we got nothing left to do
A A A                            Bm
So wipe the dirt off or take yer shirt off 
A A A                                   Bm
And we should go hit the cantina we got work off 
A A A                             Bm
I said it’s hot outside let me go swimming in your eyes
A A A                                    Bm
We’ve been running for a while why’oncha lay down make me smile
A A A                                    Bm
I could never ask for nothing better than this 
A
It’s just tequila and the beach that’s why it’s salty when we kiss

A                           Bm
I said I wish that we could stay here
                        A
But I feel our time has come
			    Bm
Oh we can walk down to the ocean
		    A
Chasing the rising sun
                            Bm
We gotta pack our bags this instant
			      A
No more running from town to town
			   Bm
And if we arrive there so safely
	     Db      A A A	Bm
Baby you can lay me down
       A A A	Bm
Lay me down
       A A A	Bm
Lay me down
       A A A	Bm
Lay me down
              A
Lay me down
