I've taken a hit or two
D5
I've given quite a few
Bb5   A5     G5            D5         A5 
I swing my fists and the cities all fall

D5
I've broken a law or two
D5
I reckon I only missed a few
Bb5    A5       G5             D5                 A5
I watch these long days pass through the bars I curse the brass

Bb5
I've had a cracked rib or two
A5
I guess I've busted more
Bb5                            A5
I've laid a couple out on the coolin' board

Bb5            A5          G5
Sometimes you walk the line
A5                      D5
And sometimes it walks you
        Bb5       A5
You get quick to anger
D5                          G5           A5
Quick to put a knife up to another man's throat
Bb5 A5     G5        A5                    D5
I cannot still the hell that's in these hands

D5
When they came to take me in
D5
I didn't fight just let them win
Bb5       G5       A5  
Whoa oh  whoa oh  whoa oh

D5
A man died in my cell
D5
Damn the guards sure gave me hell
Bb5       G5       A5
Whoa oh  whoa oh  whoa oh

D5
I'd love to see them horsemen ride 
D5
So law and order stand aside
Bb5         G5        A5
Whoa oh    whoa oh   whoa oh

D5                    
Oh this woman and gin, woman and gin
D5
Go together like the devil and sin
Bb5                          G5
Her legs are like wheat her lips are like wine
A5
Gonna meet her at the end of the county line
Bb5

D5

D5
The dogs are comin' swift and mean
Bb5                    G5             A5
But I'm hungrier than they have ever been
