Intro:  |  | : B5     |  B5 A5  : |  | 

B5            G5
My life's in jeopardy
G5                                  E5
Murdered in cold blood is what I'm gonna be
  D5                     D5 D5          E5                     B5
I ain't been home since Friday night and now my wife is comin' after me
C#5                        
Give me police protection, 
      G5                             E5       E5 E5
Gonna buy a gun so I can look after number one
D5                D5   D5        G5           
Give me a bodyguard, a black belt Judo expert 
       F#5          ( F#5 F5 F#5 F5 )
With a machine gun.

[repeat intro]
B5                       G5
Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane
         G5                              E5      E5   E5
When she catches up with me won't be no time to explain
    D5              D5 D5                  E5            
She thinks I've been with another woman and that's enough
                 B5       B5 A5 B5
To send her half insane
C#5                       G5                           E5         E5  E5
Gonna buy a fast car, put on my lead boots and take a long, long drive
  D5            D5 D5       G5                     F#....
I may end up spending all my money, but I'll still be alive.
E5                    F#5
All I did was have a bit too much to drink
      B5                C#5      C#5 B5
And I picked the wrong precinct
    E5                        F#5                      B5
Got picked up by the law and now I ain't got time to think.

[repeat second verse]
And I'm oh, so tired of running
Gonna lay down on the floor
I gotta rest sometime
So I can get to run some more, yeah!
She's comin'
She's comin'
