  G5      F5        C5
I cannot wait for dawn to break
  G5       F5     C5
I must be on my way 
  G5      F5         C5
before I pass this way again 
   Bb5     C5         G5
be many a dark dark day 

The sheriff does not know my face 
he does not know my name 
but before the sun goes down again 
he?ll know them just the same

    C5              G5
One kiss before I leave you 
    Bb5       C5       G5
and one more for the wind 
Bb5         C5
everyday I hope and pray 
   Bb5      C5   G5
to be with you again 


Between a poor man's word and a rich man's gold 
who?s chances would you choose 
the judge and jury close their eyes 
and justice don?t come true 

I?ll run from what I haven?t done 
cause the long arm of the law 
has got a silver spade that?ll dig my grave 
in Fort Smith Arkansas 


One kiss before I leave you 
and one more for the wind 
everyday I hope and pray 
to be with you again 


Down along the railroad tracks 
waitin in the weeds 
the first freight train to the leave the yard 
will be the one for me 

I?ll find a place on the box car roof 
Where the wind cuts cold and deep 
I don?t know need no rail road man 
To catch me in my sleep 


One kiss before I leave you 
and one more for the wind 
everyday I hope and pray 
to be with you again
to be with you again
