Intro 1
(G major) (A minor) (G major) (A minor)
Verse 1
Well (E minor) this is how it starts
Two (A minor) lovers in the dark
On the (B major) run, from the one
That they called Sheriff Spark
Six (E minor) guns by their side
And (A minor) bullets 'round their waist
Two (B major) shots to the sky
Signal sound for the chase
The (E minor) safe was nearly empty
and (A minor) they were nearly free
But were (B major) seen by the good eye
of the mean Billy Green
And he (E minor) screamed at the top of his lungs (A minor)
They're on the run
It's the (B major) two outsiders
Grab your horses and your guns
(G major)

Chorus 1
I said I wish that we could stay (A minor) here
But I fear our time has come (G major)
We could ride out in the dark (A minor) ness
Chasing the rising (G major) sun
We gotta pack our bags this in (A minor) stant
We're heading south-bound to the next (G major) town
And if we all arrive there so safe (A minor) ly
Baby you can lay me (G major) down (A minor)
Lay me (G major) down (A minor)
Lay me (G major) down (A minor)
Lay me (G major) down (A minor)
Verse 2
Well it's the (E minor) story of the two
(A minor) Always on the move
They got (B major) nothing left to lose
'Cept their guns and their wounds
(E minor) Now they're crossing borders
Sheriffs (A minor) posse on their tail
They'd (B major) rather die together
Than be stuck up in a cell
They (E minor) drank up all the whiskey
And they (A minor) partied every night
Like (B major) it could be the last
The bounty said shoot on sight
So they (E minor) chased the endless summer
Though it (A minor) came with the pride
They (B major) wouldn't stop running
'Til they found a paradise
But the (E minor) sheriff finally found them
with his (A minor) eyes seeing red
So the (B major) lovers had to shoot him down
and fill him full of lead
(E minor) They were finally free
To find a (A minor) place to lay their head
And (B major) when they finally did
he looked at her and then he said
(G major)
Chorus 2
I said I wish that we could stay (A minor) here
'Cause I feel our time has come (G major)
And we can walk down to the o (A minor) cean
And sit with the rising (G major) sun
So unpack your bags this in (A minor) stant
No more running from town to town (G major)
And now that we've arrived so safe (A minor) ly
Baby you can lay me (G major) down (A minor)
Lay me (G major) down (A minor)
Lay me (G major) down (A minor)
Lay me (G major) down (A minor)
Bridge 1
Well you're my (G major) green-eyed girl
And I've been running around with you
It's the afternoon
and we got nothing left to do
So wipe the (G major) dirt off,
or take your shirt off
And we should go hit the cantina
We got work off
I said it's (G major) hot outside
Let me go swimming in your eyes
We've been running for a while
Why don't you lay down, make me smile
(G major) I could never ask for nothing better than this
It's just tequila and the beach,
that's why it's salty when we kiss
(G major)
Chorus 3
I said I wish that we could stay (A minor) here
'Cause I feel our time has come (G major)
And we can walk down to the o (A minor) cean
And sit with the rising (G major) sun
So unpack your bags this in (A minor) stant
No more running from town to town (G major)
And now that we've arrived so safe (A minor) ly
Baby you can lay me (G major) down (A minor)
Lay me (G major) down (A minor)
Lay me (G major) down (A minor)
Lay me (G major) down (A minor)
