[Intro]
Am C F C G
[Verse]
Am C
Desert nights under lonely stars
F C G
Cruising down a highway takes me farther from home
Am C
Whiskey and regret
F C G
Neither can erase the fact that I have done wrong
[Chorus 1]
F C
So now I'm on the run
F C
The law is on my trail
F C
Let down the only girl that ever seemed to be the one for me
F G
So now I wander alone
[Solo]
Am C F C G
[Verse 2]
Am C
Alone in a cheap motel room
F C G
Praying to The Lord above
Am C
Burden of the past rests so heavy on my shoulders
F C G
My conscience carries the weight of blood
[Verse 3]
Am C
Cigarette smoke and shadow
F C G
A neon cactus in the night
C Am
Did what I did cause I thought that I had no choice
F C G
But there's always another way woah
[Chorus 2]
F C
look to the moon and stars
F C
Somewhere underneath them she's there
F C
Never even spoke to her the words of love I held in my heart
F G
If she heard them now, would she still care?
[Chorus 3]
F C
Wonder if she's thinking of me
F C
Does she hate me for what I've done
F C
How I wish that I could change everything and go back
F G
Now that my last chance is gone, it's gone
[Solo]
Am C F G
[Chorus 4]
F C
Moon, will you tell her for me
F C
I'm sorry for all the trouble that i've caused
F C
If only i could find a way to return to her someday
F G
For i long to hold her in my arms
[Chorus 5]
F C
But i fear that i'm not long for this world
F C
Because i will not go out without a fight
F C
I'm running forever and if they should catch me
F G
One last thought of her before my gun is fired.
