E Ho-woah-oo-oh-ho-ho-oo-woah- no Gbm Hoo-oo-woo-oo-oo E Ho-oh-oo-woah-oh-oh-oo-woah-no- oo Gbm Ab Hoo-woo- Dbm Gbm Well this is how it starts two lovers in the dark Ab On the run from the one that they call SheRiff Sparks Dbm Gbm Six guns by the side and bullets ‘round their waist Ab Two shots to the sky signal sound for the chase Dbm Gbm The safe was nearly empty and they were nearly free Ab But was seen by the wood eye of the mean Billy Greene Dbm Gbm And he screamed at the top of his lungs “they’re on the run! Ab It’s the two outsiders grab yer holsters and yer guns!” E Gbm I said I wish that we could stay here E But I fear our time has come Gbm Oh we can ride out in the darkness E Chasing the rising sun Gbm We gotta pack our bags this instant E We’re heading southbound to the next town Gbm And if we arrive there so safely Ab E E E Gbm Baby you can lay me down E E E Gbm Lay me down E E E Gbm Lay me down E E E Gbm Lay me down Dbm Gbm Well it’s the story of the two always on the move Ab They got nothing left to lose ‘cept their guns and they wounds Dbm Gbm Now they’re crossing borders sheRiff’s posse on their tail Ab They rather die together than be stuck up in a cell Dbm Gbm They drank up all the whiskey and they partied every night Ab Like it could be the last the bounty said to shoot on sight Dbm Gbm So they chased the endless summer though it came with a price Ab They wouldn’t stop running ‘til they found a paradise Dbm Gbm But the SheRiff finally found ‘em with his eyes seeing red Ab So the lovers had to shoot him down and fill him full of lead Dbm Gbm They were finally free to find a place to lay their head Ab And when they finally did he looked at her and then he said: E Gbm I said I wish that we could stay here E But I fear our time has come Gbm Oh we can walk down to the ocean E Chasing the rising sun Gbm We gotta pack our bags this instant E No more running from town to town Gbm And if we arrive there so safely Ab E E E Gbm Baby you can lay me down E E E Gbm Lay me down E E E Gbm Lay me down E E E Gbm Lay me down E E E Gbm Well you’re my green eyed girl and I’ve been running round with you E E E Gbm It’s the afternoon and we got nothing left to do E E E Gbm So wipe the dirt off or take yer shirt off E E E Gbm And we should go hit the cantina we got work off E E E Gbm I said it’s hot outside let me go swimming in your eyes E E E Gbm We’ve been running for a while why’oncha lay down make me smile E E E Gbm I could never ask for nothing better than this E It’s just tequila and the beach that’s why it’s salty when we kiss E Gbm I said I wish that we could stay here E But I feel our time has come Gbm Oh we can walk down to the ocean E Chasing the rising sun Gbm We gotta pack our bags this instant E No more running from town to town Gbm And if we arrive there so safely Ab E E E Gbm Baby you can lay me down E E E Gbm Lay me down E E E Gbm Lay me down E E E Gbm Lay me down E Lay me down Solo: E Gbm
