Songwriters: Dolly Parton / Dorothy Owens Copyright 1970 LEGEND: * means 2 beats in stead of 4 beats [Intro] G [Verse 1]
   G                                  D*                G
At last I have caught up with you and you're a sight to see:

G                              D*       G
could this really be my outlaw lover JJ Sneed?

        C                             C
Could a woman with a painted face and pretty sweet disguise

G                                   D*           G*        F*           G
turn your heart against me with her evil cunning eyes, her evil cunning eyes.
[Verse 2]
G                              D*            G
JJ, it's been you and me right from the very start,

    G                            D*             G
and every job we ever pulled I'd always done my part.

     C                          C
We'd agreed we stick together until the bitter end

       G                            D*                   G*
and it was my understanding we were whole lots more than friends,

  F*                  G
a whole lot more than friends.
[Verse 3]
    G                               D*                   G
And it was me that kept you on when nights were dark and cold,

      G                                D*               G
but I guess I didn't look like much in these old ragged clothes.

        C                               C
But you said it didn't matter cause you love me that a way,

    G                                D*                G*
you said that no one else could ever steal your heart away,

F*               G         N.C.    A          A
steal your heart away.
[Verse 4] (Key Change to Db)
   A                            E*                 A
Do you recall the Union Bank we robbed in Franklin Town,

A                          E*                 A
as we made our getaway the sheriff gunned you down.

      D                                  D
And I doctored up your bullet wounds and nursed you while you sit,

    A                            E*                A*
but now you have betrayed me, is that the thanks I get,

   G*                A
is that the thanks I get?
[Verse 5]
          A                       E*           A
Oh, yeah, JJ, I'm thinking now of how it all begun,

   A                                          E*              A
of all the times we've robbed and killed with our trustworthy gun.

    D                           D
Why we stood off a posse once, JJ just you and I,

    A                            E*                    A*
but now you have betrayed me and for that you're gonna die,

          G*                A
yeah, for that you're gonna die.
[Verse 6]
    A                         E*                   A
The good old days are over as we stand here in the rain,

 A                             E*                  A
JJ, I'm gonna shoot you now, I hope you'll feel no pain.

       D                           D
I hear hoofbeats of the horses and posses on my trail,

  A                                E*     A*
I guess I'll join you soon but for now JJ farewell,

    G*     A*      G* A*
for now JJ farewell.
