Verse 1
E
He was born
B
and raised around Jacksonville
E
A nice young man, not the kind to kill
A
But a jealous fight, a flashing blade
B
E
Sent him on the run to the Everglades
B
Run ning like a dog through
E
the Ever glades
Now the posse went in
B
and they come back out
F#m
They said he'd die and
E
there ain't no doubt
A
It's an eye for an eye, the debt is paid
B
E
He won't last long in the Ever glades
B
E
A man can't live in the Ever glades
A
Where a man can hide
E
and never be found
B
E
And have no fear of the bayonet hound
But he'd better keep a -movin'
A
and don't stand still
B
The skeeters don't get him
E
and the gators will
B
If the skeeters don't get him
E
A
then the gator s will

F#m
E
Now the years went by
B
and his girl was wed
E
His family gave him up for dead
A
But now and then the natives would say they'd
B
E
seen him a running through the Ever glades
B
Run ning like a dog through
E
the Ever glades
B
Now he never heard the news on the radio
F#m
He was deep in the glades
A
E
and you'll never know
He's running in a hide
A
and didn't make much sense.
B
E
The jury had ruled it was self -defense
B
E
The jury had ruled it was self -defense

Where a man can hide
