They had a warrant out for me all over country
E
and I was trying to beat two raps in Idaho,
A D
I was breaking into a school house sunday morning without warning
A E A
when I saw the sheriff coming for me slow from down below
A E A
His steel grey eyes were blazing when he saw me
E
his hand was on his gun when he rode up
A D
he said you killed that woman I know you shot her why'd you do it?
A E A
I'm taking you to Austin and I'm gonna lock you up
A E A
Well he tied me with the plowline the next morning
E
and he had me deep in Texas the next day
A D
A crazy screaming lynchmob waited in streets of Austin
A E A
but he put me in the jailhouse and he threw the key away
A E A
a jury found me guilty three months later
E
weld evil men with murder in their eyes
A D
they even took me out and said now show us where you killed her
A E A
and that wicked judge said now I hereby sentence you to die
E
But here I am far away from Austin prison my friend the jailor handed me a file
A D
now all I want between me and there are alot of friendly people
A E A
and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
