Verse 1:
       C             G          A              F
Well I shot a man in Louisville about one year ago, 
       C             G               A                F
He was looking at me cockeyed, and I guess it goes to show, 
          C             G               A        G   F
that Jack Daniels and a pistol can be a powerful enemy, 
C                   G                F
especially when the whiskey's inside me.

And robbed a bank in Tulsa running from the Federal B.I.

I don't mind telling you that I shot the guard just to watch him die. 
            C               G           A             G        F
And they're still hot on my trail as my drunk driving hugs the rail 
     C                        G         F
that runs south bound all the way down 55.


Chorus:
          C                           G            A             F
Well, I'm prison bound, they're gonna send me down forever and a day. 
       C                           G        F    
So I'm jumping in my truck and I'm headed down old Mexico way.

   C               G               A             F        
In Salt Lake City, Utah, there's a warrant on my head

for a girl in a bordello that someone left for dead, 
              C            G                      A       G      F
and though it wasn't me, I must admit that I was in town at the time 
          C             G                  F
Drunk and shooting guns beneath the desert sky.

and if I have to, I'll unload every one.
