An acoustic guitar plays straight chords and accompanies the vocals: [Verse 1] D Well I'd rather see you dead little girl Bm Than to be with another man D You better keep your head little girl Bm Or you won't know where I am [Chorus] E You better run for your life if you can little girl Bm E Hide your head in the sand little girl Bm G Catch you with another man F# Bm D That's the end little girl.

[Verse 2] D Well you know that I'm a wicked guy Bm And I was born with a jealous mind D And I can spend my whole life Bm Tryin' just to make you tow the line. [Chorus] E You better run for your life if you can little girl Bm E Hide your head in the sand little girl Bm G Catch you with another man F# Bm D That's the end little girl. [Solo]
