Life Of An Outlaw

G         D C G

[Verse]

G
Held up in a shotgun shack

not goin? nowhere soon
D
Sheriff and his fifty men
C         G      C  G
under a July moon
G
Where you gonna run to now,

you got nowhere to go
D
Sheriff?s got ya pinned way down,
     C              G    C G
he's comin? for your soul
G
Won?t be much longer now

cause the stars are fillin? the sky
D
We?re gonna kick open the ol? front door,
      C               G    C G
we?ll let the bullets fly.

[Chorus]

D               C       D             C
Well I may be goin? down, I may be headed out,
D                     C                                G
Got my back against a wall just like a final curtain call

[Verse]

G
Flames stab the darkness,

lightin? up the sky
D
Lead flyin? through the midnight air
   C            G    C G
as men begin to die
G
Life falls around me

as a gun bucks in my hand
   D
If life is like a desert,
       C             G     C  G
hell's just a grain of sand
G
Horse race with the hoof beat

along the riverside
D
Cloud of dust raisin? up behind
      C               G       C  G
as we cross the great divide

[Chorus]

D               C       D            C
Well I may be goin? down, I may be headed out,
D                     C                                G
Got my back against a wall just like a final curtain call

[Bridge]

G
That?s the life of an outlaw

Livin? by the gun
D
There?s a little bit of outlaw
  C            G
Inside of everyone

[Chorus]

D               C       D             C
Well I may be goin? down, I may be headed out,
D                     C                                  G
Got my back against a wall just like a final curtain call
