A5 E5 I am an outlaw, I was born an outlaw's son A5 E5 The highway is my legacy On the highway I will run A5 E5 In one hand I've a Bible In the other I've got a gun A5 E5 Well, don' you know me I'm the man who won ** Chorus ** G5 D5 A5 C5 Woman don't try to love me Don't try to understand G5 D5 A5 C5 E5 A life upon the road is the life of an outlaw man ************************************************* This album cut was released in April,73 and I first saw these guys as a warm-up band at the Warehouse in Naw'lens in June, I knew then folks would hear a "lot more from those guys". So, I hope David Blue would not mind, if I added this verse: A5 E5 I, met a woman, 'round 'bout San Antoin' A5 E5 An' late in the evenin', when we were all alone A5 E5 I told her,how I loved her and I held her tight!! A5 'Cause the next mourin', I was leavin' E5 Off to another fight!! ** Chorus ** E5 A5 First left my woman, it was down in Santa Fe E5 A5 Headed for Oklahoma, I was ridin' night and day E5 All of my friends are strangers, A5 They quickly come and go E5 And all my love's in danger, A5 'Cause I steal hearts and souls ** Chorus ** A5 E5 Some me call me Abel, Some men call me Cain, A5 E5 Some men call me sinner, Lord Some men call me saint A5 E5 Some say there's a Jesus Some men say there ain't A5 E5 When you got no life to lose Then there's nothin' left to gain A5 E5 OUTL-A-W M-A-N A5 E5 OUTL-A-W M-A-N
