Living On The Run
by David Allan Coe and Jimmy L. Howard
as performed by David Allan Coe

A                       E
Seems like it's raining harder today

F#m
The rain must've known I was comin' this way

         D                  A
It ain't easy living on the run

If I pick up my step and pull my belt down tight
I can make it to the border by Saturday night
And it's lonely living on the run.

F#m
I killed me a woman in Tennessee

D
I just broke jail and they're gunnin' for me

           A  E               F#m
I'm on the run, living on the run

           A  E               F#m
I'm on the run, living on the run


My woman wanted more than a man could steal
From the bottom of the deck's where I learned to deal
And it got me living on the run
Women love an outlaw I heard folks say
And I'll be an outlaw till my dying day
Cause it got me living on the run.

I killed me a woman in Tennessee
I Just broke jail and they're gunnin' for me
I'm on the run, living on the run
I'm on the run, living on the run

Outro:  F#m-E-D-F#m  repeat...
