[Intro] Am9 Am C D x4 [Verse 1]
        Am9 Am C D    Am9     Am  C D
Little Amsterdam in a southern town

Am9  Am C D            Am9  Am C D
Hominy, get it on the plate, girl

Am9 Am C D        Am9  Am C D
Momma, keep your head down

Am9  Am C D         Am9  Am C D
Momma, it wasn’t my bullet
[Chorus]
Am9  Am C D    Am9  Am          C D
Don’t take me back to the range

Am9  Am          C D
Back to the range

     Am9   Am                C           D
I’m just coming out of the cell in my brain

Am9  Am C D           Am9  Am         C D
Don’t, don't take me back to the range

Am9  Am            C D
Back to the range

Am9                          G
Cause, girl, you’ve got to know these days

Am9  Am C D
Which side you’re on
[Verse 2]
Am9  Am C D                       Am9  Am C D
Momma got shit, she, she loved a brown man

          Am9  Am C D           Am9  Am C D
Then she built a bridge in the Sheriff’s bed

          Am9  Am C D   Am9  Am C D
She’d do anything to save her man

             Am9  Am C D      Am9  Am C D
You see her olives, they are cold pressed

        Am9  Am C D      Am9  Am C D
And her best friend is a sun dress

     Am9  Am C D
But, momma, it wasn’t my bullet, no
[Chorus]
Am9  Am C D    Am9  Am         C D
Don’t take me back to the range

Am9  Am          C D
Back to the range

Am9              Am           C          D
I’m just coming out of the cell in my brain

Am9  Am C D           Am9  Am C D
Don’t, don't take me back to the range

Am9  Am C D
Back to the range

Am9                          G
Cause, girl, you’ve got to know these days
[Bridge]
Am9          Am   C           D
All alone got a girl in the city

Am9          Am         C        D
Hey, got a room and a place for two

Am9     Am         C        D
Got a goat and a phone, I said

Am9             Am       C      D
"Boy,  you are my Fifth Avenue"

Am                      F     G
Round and around and around I go

Am                      F        G
Round and around this time for keeps

Am                      F     G
Round and around and around I go

Am                      F        G
Round and around this time for keeps

Am                    F     G
Father only you can save my soul

     Am                  F        G       Am9 Am C D   Am9 Am C D
And playing that organ must've count for something, something

Am9                 G
Girl you’ve got to know these days
[Verse 3]
       Am9  Am C D     Am9  Am C D
Little Amsterdam shut down today

       Am9  Am C D       Am9  Am C D
They buried her with a butter bean bouquet

        Am9  Am C D         Am9  Am C D
And the Sheriff now can’t ride away

Am9  Am C D             Am9  Am C D
Like he said into the sunset

        Am9  Am C D        Am9  Am C D
And I won’t say that he shouldn’t have paid

       Am9  Am C D          Am9
But, Momma, it wasn’t my bullet
