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


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

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


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


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

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