Intro : F5 Verse 1: F5 I stole a rag top Cadillac, going home I had to cross the tracks. Bb5 Train was coming when the engine died. F5 I jumped out and watched the two colide. C5 I barely had the time to save my hide. F5 Can't even do wrong right. Verse 2: F5 Without a dime at 35, I have up on the good life. Bb5 F5 I robbed a bank with my .45, I was headed for the border line. C5 When my gas tank went bone dry. F5 Can't even do wrong right. Bb5 F5 Back where I come from , well they call it hard luck. G5 C5 But that judge of mine, just called it hard time. Solo: Bb5 F5 Bb5 C5 C5 C5 C5 Verse 3: F5 I'm payin' my dues doing time, the wardens teaching me to walk the line. Bb5 But temptation he's a friend of mine, F5 he found us a fence to climb. C5 But then the spot light robbed us blind. F5 Can't even do wrong right. Chorus: Bb5 F5 Back where I come from , well they call it hard luck. G5 C5 But that judge of mine, just called it hard time. Outro: F5 Bb5 (repeat) I can't even do wrong right I can't even do wrong right -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is played over the verse also.
