Key: D
Introduction:
D C G
He cracks a wicked smile, had his foot pressed to the floor
D C G
Flyin' down country roads that he's been down before
D C G A
One of just three men that the sheriff cannot catch
Bm A G D C G(2x)
And he's travelin' 90 miles an hour, down the Bolton Stretch
verse 2
D C G
The first time we had seen his face was back in '84
D C G
He walked right into old O'Hares, he robbed that liquor store
D C G A
The sheriff tried to catch him but the man he got away
Bm A G D C G(2x)
And he didn't show his face in town again until today
Em D
He Didn't come for justice, didn't come to make amends
Em D
Doesn't ask forgiveness, he's not looking to make friends
Em D A G
Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin
A D C G
Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again
verse 3
D C G
He watches all the trees fly by, but doesn't seem to care
D C G
Knows it's time to leave again, but doesn't know to where
D C G A
And though he stole a lot of money, it's not enough for bail
Bm A G D C G(2x)
And there are two blue lights behind him now, the sheriff's on his trail
Em D
He Didn't come for justice, didn't come to make amends
Em D
Doesn't ask forgiveness, he's not looking to make friends
Em D A G
Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin
A D C G
Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again
verse 4
D C G
Since the day that he was born he spent his whole live livin' free
D C G
With nothing but the loosest ties to friends and family
D C G A
No punishment will make him care about the things he's done
Bm A G D C G(2x)
And if he lives another 20 years he'll live 'em on the run
Em D
He Didn't come for justice, didn't come to make amends
Em D
Doesn't ask forgiveness, he's not looking to make friends
Em D A G
Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin
A D C G
Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again
