Em             G                     A      B7
We met up in a town outside of Middlesboro

         Em                  G               A       B7
From the look in his eyes I knew he lost his soul

    Em     G                         A      B7
We got to talking in this small town bar

        Em               G               A    B7
He said this time Clay I think I went to far

    Em              G                A       B7
He made all the way here from Potter Flats

Em              G            A      B7
Man This time I just cant go back

       Em                 G
Stolen nickels and bloody dimes

       A              B7
Do the crime stay the time

    Em                       G
Six shooter on his hip Take another whiskey sip

     A                B7
It’s Gunfighter fame  Say it in his name

Spent the night in a motel down at the edge of town

Em              G                          A       B7
No rest for the weary we will never lay it down

Em                           G               A     B7
Whatever he had done well it sent him on the run

    Em                       G          A     B7
Low times and high noon its all coming soon
