Verse 1

                           B     E
Bonnie was a waitress in a small cafe
                                  B        E
Clyde Barrow was the rounder that took her away
                     E7           A            E
They both robbed and killed until both of them died
                      B          E
So goes the legend of Bonnie and Clyde

Verse 2

E                               B              E
The poems that she wrote of the life that they led
                        B        E
Told of the lawmen left dying or dead
                             B          E
Now some say that Clyde made her life a shame
                               B           E
But the legend made Bonnie the head of the gang

Verse 3

E                              B            E
Their rampage grew wilder with each passing day
                                B          E
Their odds growing smaller with each get-a-way
                E7         A           E
The end getting closer the harder they fought
                                    B            E
With blood on their hands they were bound to get caught

Verse 4

E                                B             E
They drove back from town on one bright summer day
                                   B          E
When a man they befriended stepped out in the way
                   E7         A             E
With no thought of dying they pulled to the side
                                B        E
But death lay there waiting for Bonnie & Clyde

Now two years of running was ended that day
                             B           E
For robbin' and killin' they both had to pay
             E7           A             E
We'll always remember how they lived an died
                      B        E
So goes the Legend of Bonnie & Clyde
