[E]
A rat-trapped motel room, just this side of hell
Stuck in the middle of nowhere, things ain't looking so well
A pistol in his belt, a Bible in his hand
The cops are at the front door, looking for the cause of man
[A] [E]
[C#m] And he rolled on [A] while he waited [C#m] for them to gun [A] him down
[C#m] They finally [A] got him trapped, but there's [C#m] nowhere to [A] run now
[E]
One [A] thing's for sure, [E] the jail don't fit [A] his plans
[E] As the cops bust [A] down the front door, he's waiting, he's waiting
Waiting for them at the pistol-free [E]
town
He's just a man down on his luck, looking for some quick cash
One drug deal to make a few bucks, and he's never looking back
[A] [E]
He's gonna do this one big deal, then he's gonna stop
Put all the money in that suitcase, it's from an undercover cop
So [C#m] he rolled on while [A] he waited [C#m] for them to gun [A] him down
[C#m] They finally got [A] him trapped, but there's [C#m] nowhere to [A] run now
[E]
One thing's [A] for sure, [E] the jail don't fit [A] his plans
As [E] the cops bust down [A] the front door, he's waiting, he's waiting
Waiting for them with a pistol in [E] each hand
[C#m]
[A] [C#m]
[A] [E]
[F#m] [E]
[A] [E]
Like an old cowboy movie, guns blazing like hell
The DA busts on in, they're gonna put his ass under the jail
[A] [E] He screams out to the cops, it wasn't supposed to be like this
With his pistols cocked and loaded, he fires in self-defense
Then [C#] he rolled on [A] while he waited [C#m] for them to [A] gun him down
[C#m] They finally [A] got him trapped, but there's [C#m] nowhere to [A] run now
[E]
One thing's for [A] sure, [E] the jail don't fit [A] his plans
As [E] the cops bust down [A] the front door, he's waiting, he's waiting
He's waiting, he's waiting
Waiting for them with a pistol in [E] each hand
