[Verse]
           G                    C
I saw her standin' on her front lawn
      G               C
just twirlin' her baton
        F                C
Me and her went for a ride sir
        G                   C
and ten innocent people died


[Verse]
          G                   C
From the town of Lincoln Nebraska
             G               C
with a sawed-off .410 on my lap
                F               C
Through to the badlands of Wyoming
            G                C
I killed everything in my path


[Interlude]
G  C


[Verse]
         G              C
I can't say that I'm sorry
           G             C
for the things that we done
          F              C
At least for a little while sir
        G                   C
me and her we had us some fun


[Verse]
           G                   C
The jury brought in a guilty verdict
         G                         C
and the judge he sentenced me to death
         F              C
Midnight in a prison storeroom
               G                C
with leather straps across my chest


[Verse]
         G                       C
Sheriff when the man pulls that switch sir
     G                  C
and snaps my poor head back
          F              C
You make sure my pretty baby
            G                  C
is sittin' right there on my lap


[Solo]
G  C  G  C


[Verse]
         G                  C
They declared me unfit to live
                     G                C
said into that great void my soul be hurled
                F                    C
They wanted to know why I did what I did
                                G                C
well sir I guess there's just a meanness in this world
