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


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

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


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


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

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