[A]
[C] [Em] [G] [Dm]
[C] [G] [E]
[C] [F]
Ain't it just like you [C] and me to go down like that
[G] Leavin' out in a [F] boxcar, shot [C] in the back
Leave all that [G] love, all that [F] time
Lost, [C] waitin' for us at the end of the line
Any minute [G] now, we knew we [F] was gonna have to [C] decide
[G] [F]
[C] [F] Take a fat chance, come out gunning
Get [E] out now, try to [F] keep running down south
Then she said, [G] hey, hey, cut the rope
[A] There's no way I'm gonna let them get [C] us both
So don't stop runnin' till you reach that coast
Let your pretty mama go up in [G] smoke
[C] [G]
[C] [G] Comin' out of the woods was [C] simple and new
Clean as clean water, [E] you could see [C] straight through
But in that old dashboard, when the money got low
It was all we [C] could do to keep a nail in a boat
Showed on her face, it's nailed [F] by the lines
These desperate times
[F] This little strap that her hair was [C] dyed
Gonna make her [Em] money like Bonnie
[F] Life will be alright
[C] Then she said, hey, [G] hey, cut the rope
[F] There's no way I'm gonna let them get us both
[C] So don't stop runnin' [G] till you reach that coast
Let your [C] pretty mama go up in [G]
smoke
Get [C] [F]
your gear [C] down, change [Em] your last name, try your luck around
[F]
Tell [Em] them that you knew me and you kinda like [F] me
I ain't afraid of goin' on my own
[C] You [E] can make a run and make it all alone
Life will [F] be [F] alright
[G]
[F] [C] [G]
[F] [C] [G]
[F] [C] [G]
[F] [C] [F] The line is [Gm] still [C] burning
Just like the [Em] wind
Hands keep [F] turning around and around
Till time ran [C] out
She said, hey, hey, [G] cut [F] the rope
There's no way [Am] I'm gonna let them get [C] us both
So don't stop [G] runnin' till you reach [F] that coast
Let your pretty mama go up in [C] smoke
She said, hey, [G] hey, cut [Am] the rope
There's no way I'm gonna let them get [C] us both
[G] Let your pretty [C] mama go up in [G] smoke
[C] Up in smoke
[C] [E] [N]
