Verse: 
Am (x02210@1)                               EmOld (022000@1)man Johnny Law, he came knockin' on my door
Am (x02210@1)                     
I shot him dead, twice in the head
Em (022000@1)                    
He won't bother me no more
AmI'm (x02210@1)going down to Texas 
EmWhere (022000@1)the city meets the sun
F (133211@1)                          Em (022000@1)        AmI (x02210@1)think it's time I lay down my guns
F (133211@1)                          Em (022000@1)        AmI (x02210@1)think it's time I lay down my guns

So I found myself a chapel
Bowed my head and learned to pray
When I saw the preacher's daughter
She turned her eyes my way
She climbed into my back seat
And I showed her all of my scars
Lord knows we can fall so far
Lord knows we can fall so far

Dm (xx0231@1)                                  AmBut (x02210@1)my skin is so thick that I don't feel at all
Em (022000@1)                                                    AmAnd (x02210@1)when the fire starts burning I'm the last one you'll call
Dm (xx0231@1)                               AmSee (x02210@1)my hands are so calloused and bruised
F (133211@1)                            Em (022000@1)    AmMy (x02210@1)heart will stay black and blue

I took a job in Mississippi working on the train
That's where I learned to gamble and to drink away my pain
When my fears grab hold of me they call me by my name
Lord knows I can't change
Lord knows I can't change

But my skin is so thick that I don't feel at all
And when the fire starts burning I'm the last one you'll call
See my hands are so calloused and bruised
My heart will stay black and blue

(guitar solo) Play chorus chords
 
So I'll take what I've been given
I can't change the things I've done
Lord knows my time has come
Lord knows my time has come

(guitar solo 2)Play chorus chords

Yeah my skin is so thick that I don't feel at all
And when the fire starts burning I'm the last one you'll call
See my hands are so calloused and bruised
My heart will stay black and blue
