Am                F                 C              E
Ain't got time to shoot the breeze, Got no time to blow,

Excuse me mister if you please, I gotta go

Am                      F                    C               E
Born one mornin' on the day of the dead in a bombed out bungalow

My momma kissed my cheek and said...    I gotta go

Wastin' time standing here,   I gotta go

Am                F          C          E
They put me in an orphanage, West of Tupelo

I told em when I burnt that bridge,   I gotta go

Am           F          C               E
Stole a car, got a gun, Robbed the Hidey-Ho

Am            F            E        Am
I left Memphis on the run... I gotta go

I gotta go somewhere, I gotta go

Wastin' time standing here,   I gotta go

Am              F            C                E
Five card stud, deuces wild, Three kings in a row

  Am                  F                E      Am
I turned that diamond deuce and smiled, I gotta go       

Am                       F            C                  E
They tracked my down and took my take, brother don't you know

  Am                     F             E          Am
I told them boys there's some mistake,   I gotta go
Chorus:
F       C            G        Am
I gotta go somewhere, I gotta go 

Am          F             E          Am                       
Wastin' time standing here,   I gotta go

Am             F                    C                      E
Cold Steel up against my head, they turned the lights down low

   Am              F           E        Am
In case you didn't hear I said...I gotta go

Am                  F               C               E
These are your very last words sir, say em nice and slow,

Am                    F
My last words on this planet were...

Wastin' time standing here,   I gotta go
