I saw [G#] her standing on [C#] her front lawn, just [G#] a twirling her [C#] baton.
Me [F#] and her went [C#] for a ride some [D#] ten [G#] inch [C#] people down [G#] from the town of Lincoln, [C#]
Nebraska.
Well they sought [G#] all fourteen on my lap, threw [F#] the baton and put [C#] wine on me.
I [D#] killed everybody hanging [C#] my back.

I [G#] can't say that [C#] I'm sorry for [D#] the things that [G#] we've done, at least for a [F#] little while, sir.
Me [G#] and her we had us [C#] some fun, [G#] had the jewelry brought in [C#] guilty verdict, and [G#] the judge sentenced [C#] me to death.
[F#] Midnight in [C#] prison storeroom, leather [G#] straps across my [C#] chest.
Sheriff when the [G#] man [C#] that's sweet, sir, and snaps [G#]
my forehead back.
You make [F#] sure my pretty [C#] baby sitting [D#] right there on [C#] my lap.

They [D#] declared me [C#] unfit to live, said in that [G#] great void my soul [C#] be her.
You [F#] want to know why I did what [C#] I did?
Sir, I guess there's just [G#] a meanness in [C#] this world.
