[Intro 1]
[C][G][C]
[G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[F]In the[G] sma[Am]ll black
hours of the [C]morning
[G]Waiting for that woman to [D]call
In the [Am]hoarder that expands on [C]your liar
[G]A prize on your head and
one [D]bullet in your gun
You were [Am]lied to, cheated,
[C]ripped off, beaten awa[G]y
You could not understand
[D]Unl[G]ess you lie[Am] to think of just
who [C]you'd like to shoot
[G]Your fingers start itching when
you reach [D]out your [C]hand
Well, you pick up the [G]phone,
you dial any number [D]with your gun
[C]Let's put a total [G]stranger on the spot and
see what [D]he would've [C]done
Anyway, you got a [G]few minutes left
before the [D]justice [C]comes
Hey mis[G]ter, you don't know me,
[F]I'm the [G]law on the [Am]run[C][G][D][G][Am][C][G]
[D]
[G]When [A]that sad -hearted wo
[Am]man [C]comes callin'
You're gonna [G]settle
accounts on that [D]run
Your in[Am]nocence don't matter to
[C]Starkey
[G]But she knows that a crime
is a vic[D]tim
[G]You've [D]been [Am]beat up, locked up[C],
mistreated and shut up
[G]In this room when it's
get[C]ting you [D]down
[G]You [D]got a [Am]few bills to settle [C]with
a gun that they loaned you
Then you [G]can say goodbye to this [D]whole crazy [C]town
[G][C][F]
[C][G][C][G][F][G][Am]
[C][G][C][G]
[C][G][F][G]
And the [Am]blues fall as we [C]fall,
you [G]cut so short as to keep out the [D]sun
It's been [Am]burning your [C]eyes for two hours,
and [G]two hours ago you knew that [D]she wouldn't come
But you [Am]caught out, bought out,
or [C]did you just find [G]out
But a love that's [C]been wasted
[G]like this [D]is no use
So you [Am]pick up the phone,
[C]dial a number once more
[G]But the same old tone of screaming,
you spit [D]on [G]the truth
[C]Hey mister, can you tel[G]l me
what I'm doing [D]wrong?
[C]Well, they give me a bad[G]ge and
they give me a [D]gun[G][D]
[C]They give me a file full [G]of words but
I don't know their [D]song[G][C]
Lo[G]g on 5's
Gone
Low, [F]I g[G]ot the low on the r[D]oad
