Am
Check the clock, light a smoke, pack my bags
Dm
I walk to the window, wipe the frost off the glass
E
I see the sun rising
My, how it rises fast
Am
So I turn up my coat and I start walking
Dm
Sun in my back, toward the darkness
E
And in my coat pocket
A letter written in her hand
Am E
And it said
Am
Baby, baby, wouldn&rsquo t it be nice
Dm
To leave this town and not think twice
E
But this is my home and that would be a heavy price
Am
But I know you gotta leave
You must take flight
Dm
Head out of town on I-35
E
And if I&rsquo m late
Leave without me and It&rsquo ll be all right
Am
Here I am on the edge of town
Dm
Same old place you told me that she&rsquo d come around
Am
The storm above me growing but there ain&rsquo t no sound
Just the greyhound on the edge of town
Am
On the edge of town
Dm
It&rsquo s raining, it&rsquo s pouring, it&rsquo s coming down
Am
Alone and searching for her but she ain&rsquo t around
E Am
Nowhere to be found on the edge of town
Am
Wind and rain, I just wait
If I stay she ain&rsquo t gone, yeah
Dm
My fate&rsquo s on the way, I run &lsquo cause I&rsquo m wanted
E
And I see the lights of the law coming over the hill
Am
The bus pulls in
The doors crash open
Dm
Almost in the win
Still not past hoping
E
But you come running in
Calling out my name
Am E
(Talkin&rsquo about it)
Am
Baby, baby, I can&rsquo t let you leave
Dm
Wherever you aree you will be taking me
E
And there I&rsquo ll be
You woman always down to ride
Am
We&rsquo ll get out of town, forget all we know
Dm
Move through the night, find a home
E
Stand there hand in hand
And watch our love provide
Am
And here I am on the edge of town
Dm
Same old place you told me that she&rsquo d come around
Am
Storm above me growing but there ain&rsquo t no sound
E Am
Just the sirens and howls on the edge of town
Am
On the edge of town
Dm
It&rsquo s raining, it&rsquo s pouring, it&rsquo s coming down
Am
The lawmen coming and swarming and they&rsquo re all around
E Am
But nowhere to be found on the edge of town
Dm
Then suddenly
E
All the world goes hazy
C
The sounds of sirens fading
E
The guns are drawn and aiming
Dm E
And maybe it&rsquo s best to let them take me
C
Surrender to them safely
E
But I can&rsquo t live without my baby
Am
So here I am on the edge of town
Dm
Same old place you told me that she&rsquo d come around
E
I draw my pistol
And blast off around
Am Dm E
