Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Uno, Dos, Uno, Dos, Tres, [D]Cuatro[G]
If I'd have known you were back in town
[Em]I'd [C]have just stayed in [G]jail
I wouldn't have had to lay around
[Em]Out [A]trying to raise my b[D]ail
It was [G]you who talked me into helping you
Oh, that [Em]little [C]border town [G]bank -up
And it was you who said,
[Em]Man, we can hide out in Mexico
But [A]your getaway plan sucked
[D]It would have bee[G]n much
safer for you, my friend
If [C]I was still in m[G]y cell
If I'd have known you were back in town
[Em]I'd [D]have just stayed in jail[G]
I [D]told you that we should have
Takin' my horses
and [C]left your old pick -up in town
[G]That For[D]d was smokin',
makin' so much noise
It didn't [C]take them long to track us [G]down
If [Em]you don't stay out of my sight [C]this time
I'm [D]gonna be committin' another crime
If I'd have [G]known you were back in town
[Em]I'd [C]have just stayed in [G]jail[D]
[G][A][D][G][C][G][Em]
[A][D]
[G]It'd be better for you, my friend,
if [C]I was still in m[G]y cell
If I'd have known you were back in town,
[Em]I'd [D]have just stayed
in [G]jail.[D][G][D][G]
[D]You said we could live like millionaires
in the [C]mountains of [G]Mexico.
[C]But we [D]wouldn't last long,
my stupid friend,
with that [C]five hundred dollars [G]we stole
We [Em]picked one of Texas' [C]brokest banks,
for that [D]part of the plan
I've got you to thank
I've [C]served my time, and I'm a free man,
so get [D]out of my face with your contraband
[G]If I'd have known you were back in town,
sucker
[C]I'd have just stayed [G]in jail
[Em]I wouldn't[G] have had no hair to grow
[Em]Out [A]trying to raise my bai[G]l
[D]It was you[G] who tal[Em]ked
me [G]into helping you
Hold that little [C]border town [G]bank up
And it was you who said,
man, we can [Em]hide out in Mexico
But your [A]getaway plans sure [D]suck
It [G]would be much safer for you, my friend,
if [C]I was feeling mys[G]elf
If I'd have known you were back in town,
[Em]I'd [D]have just stayed in jail
