Em Am
Well this is how it starts two lovers in the dark
B
On the run from the one that they call Sheriff Sparks
Em Am
Six guns by the side and bullets 'round their waist
B
Two shots to the sky signal sound for the chase
Em Am
The safe was nearly empty and they were nearly free
B
But was seen by the wood eye of the mean Billy Greene
Em Am
And he screamed at the top of his lungs “they're on the run
B
It's the two outsiders grab yer holsters and yer guns ”
G Am
I said I wish that we could stay here
G
But I fear our time has come
Am
Oh we can ride out in the darkness
G
Chasing the rising sun
Am
We gotta pack our bags this instant
G
We're heading southbound to the next town
Am
And if we arrive there so safely
B G G GAm
Baby you can lay me down
G G GAm
Lay me down
G G GAm
Lay me down
G G GAm
Lay me down
Em Am
Well it's the story of the two always on the move
B
They got nothing left to lose 'cept their guns and they wounds
Em Am
Now they're crossing borders sheriff's posse on their tail
B
They rather die together than be stuck up in a cell
Em Am
They drank up all the whiskey and they partied every night
B
Like it could be the last the bounty said to shoot on sight
Em Am
So they chased the endless summer though it came with a price
B
They wouldn't stop running 'til they found a paradise
Em Am
But the Sheriff finally found 'em with his eyes seeing red
B
So the lovers had to shoot him down and fill him full of lead
Em Am
They were finally free to find a place to lay their head
B
And when they finally did he looked at her and then he said
G Am
I said I wish that we could stay here
G
But I fear our time has come
Am
Oh we can walk down to the ocean
G
Chasing the rising sun
Am
We gotta pack our bags this instant
G
No more running from town to town
Am
And if we arrive there so safely
B G G GAm
Baby you can lay me down
G G GAm
Lay me down
G G GAm
Lay me down
G G GAm
Lay me down
G G G Am
Well you're my green eyed girl and I've been running round with you
G G G Am
It's the afternoon and we got nothing left to do
G G G Am
So wipe the dirt off or take yer shirt off
G G G Am
And we should go hit the cantina we got work off
G G G Am
I said it's hot outside let me go swimming in your eyes
G G G Am
We've been running for a while why'oncha lay down make me smile
G G G Am
I could never ask for nothing better than this
G
It's just tequila and the beach that's why it's salty when we kiss
G Am
I said I wish that we could stay here
G
But I feel our time has come
Am
Oh we can walk down to the ocean
G
Chasing the rising sun
Am
We gotta pack our bags this instant
G
No more running from town to town
Am
And if we arrive there so safely
B G G GAm
Baby you can lay me down
G G GAm
Lay me down
G G GAm
Lay me down
G G GAm
Lay me down
