[Intro] Am Em Fmaj7 C [Verse 1]
Am            Em                Fmaj7        C
Every night's another bar and a bottle in my hand

Am                        Em               Fmaj7          C
These cheap cigars, they burn my lungs but I don't give a damn

Am                    Em          Fmaj7             C
And all the sins I've made time I oughta be dead by now

Am         Em                  Fmaj7          C
I'm going down this road, just keep on headed south
[Chorus]
Am                Em         Fmaj7    C
'Cause I'm coming down off a run away high

Am             Em             Fmaj7          C
These cops are on my tail but I don't really mind

Am           Em               Fmaj7       C
'Cause I could be gone in the blink of an eye

Am                 Em           Fmaj7            C
So what's one more sin before I reach the by and by
[Verse 2]
Am                Em            Fmaj7      C
I heard she met a good old man down in the sticks

Am             Em                Fmaj7              C
He was lookin' sharp as a knife, hell he's probably 36

Am                  Em        Fmaj7                 C
Well, he crossed my path so I pulled out my old six-shot

Am           Em            Fmaj7             C
Then I put a piece of lead right through his heart
[Chorus]
Am                Em         Fmaj7    C
'Cause I'm coming down off a run away high

Am             Em             Fmaj7          C
These cops are on my tail but I don't really mind

Am            Em              Fmaj7       C
'Cause I could be gone in the blink of an eye

Am                 Em           Fmaj7            C
So what's one more sin before I reach the by and by
[Outro] (single strum)
Am         Em         Fmaj7    C
I'm coming down off a run away high

Am             Em             Fmaj7          C
These cops are on my tail but I don't really mind

Am            Em              Fmaj7       C
'Cause I could be gone in the blink of an eye

Am                 Em           Fmaj7            C
So what's one more sin before I reach the by and by
