[Verse]
           G#       
  I saw her standin'
              C#
on her front lawn
      G#               C#
just twirlin' her baton
        F#                C#
Me and her went for a ride sir
        G#                   C#
and ten innocent people died


[Verse]
          G#                   C#
From the town of Lincoln Nebraska
             G#               C#
with a sawed-off .410 on my lap
                F#               C#
Through to the badlands of Wyoming
            G#                C#
I killed everything in my path


[Interlude]
G# C#


[Verse]
         G#              C#
I can't say that I'm sorry
           G#             C#
for the things that we done
          F#              C#
At least for a little while sir
        G#                   C#
me and her we had us some fun


[Verse]
           G#     
  The jury brought
               C#
in a guilty verdict
         G#       
  and the judge he
                   C#
sentenced me to death
         F#              C#
Midnight in a prison storeroom
               G#    
  with leather straps
             C#
across my chest


[Verse]
         G#           
  Sheriff when the man
             C#
pulls that switch sir
     G#                  C#
and snaps my poor head back
          F#              C#
You make sure my pretty baby
            G#                  C#
is sittin' right there on my lap


[Solo]
G# C# G# C#


[Verse]
         G#                  C#
They declared me unfit to live
                     
  said into that great
  G#                C#
void my soul be hurled
                F#   
  They wanted to know
                  C#
why I did what I did
                         
  well sir I guess there's
        G#                C#
just a meanness in this world
