B Ab/A A
B
The man come to shake my hand
Ab/A A
And rob me of my farm
B
I shot him dead and hung my head
Ab/A A
And drove off in his car
B
So on the run with a smokin gun
Ab/A A
I?m lookin for the coast
B
Of all the things I?ve had and lost
Ab/A A
Your love I miss the most
E B A
And hell will have to pay
B E
I went a little bit too far I?d say
Half drunk I stumble on
The whiskey from the bar
Sleepin in the Santa Monica pier
With the Junkies and the Stars
For when I wore a Spanish cross
Was reachin for my hand
Then a stranger took the place
Of words I couldn?t understand
E B A
And there?s nothing but the ground
E B A
It?s the only place I?ve found
E B A E
Where I can lay my head in town
Down on the boulevard
The sidewalk shuffles change
Cracked out from the night before
Hallucinating in the rain
So I borrowed a quarter for
A call to the other side
Told god that the whole damn world
Was waitin in line to die
But not me this time
I left the trouble far behind
And then he tied his arm off one more time
The man come to shake my hand
And rob me of my farm
