ravis Tritt Written by - J.R. Cobb & Buddy Buie Album-The Restless Kind [Intro] B A/B E D B A/B E D B [Verse]

B
I was dealin' up and down the highway

                                   E
Till they caught me with a heavy load

     F#
They sentenced me to hard labor

  E7                           B
Workin' on the side of the road

Now I don't deny I was guilty

                        E
And I know I broke the law

F#
I was hungry and broke and couldn't see no hope

            E7                   B
And my back was up against the wall

[Chorus]

B
Now I'm right outside your window

                          E
Honey, open up and let me in

    F#
I broke out of jail this mornin'

         E                    B
And I ain't never goin' back again

I just had to stop by for a minute

                           E
And I can't stay long at all

      F#
'Cause I gotta run, you see I'm under the gun

      E7                     B
And my back is up against the wall

(Back to first Part of Intro then solo) [Verse]

B
I was shackled to a three-time loser

               E
A man named Jefferson

F#
One night we got to talkin'

    E7                    B
And I asked him what he'd done

He said a man fell over my razor In the middle of a bar room brawl

    F#
But don't you see, it was him or me

            E7                   B
And my back was up against the wall

[Chorus]

B
Now I'm right outside your window

                          E
Honey, open up and let me in

    F#
I broke out of jail this mornin'

         E                    B
And I ain't never goin' back again

I just had to stop by for a minute

                           E
And I can't stay long at all

      F#
'Cause I gotta run, you see I'm under the gun

      E7                     B
And my back is up against the wall

[Outro]

F#
Cause I gotta run, you see I'm under the gun

       E7                    B
And my back is up against the wal

B     F#
Yeah, I gotta run, you see I'm under the gun

       E7                     B
And my back is up against the wall

[Outro] B A/B E D B
