[Verse 1]
[G]Lejos and Mary
Lay dazed in Liula
Dreaming of tropical [C]signs
[D]As Lejos lay sleeping
She knelt over him weeping
Feeling [C]the weight
[G]of his crimes[C][G][C]
It seems he [G]cut a man down
in a Tennessee town
And he's just licking his wounds
for [C]a spell
But it won't [D]take long for
the boys to catch on
And soon he'll be running like [Dm]hell[D]
[C]Run [D]Lejos[G] run
[C]This ain't [F]no [C]time for that [G]ball and [D]chain
[C]Run [D]Lej[Em]os run
[D]Climb on that pony and [C]ride
like you never done
Ride like you never [G]done[D][Am]
[C][G][D][Am][C][G][C][G]
Well their love it was long
It was gentle and strong
And for a while she forgot [C]his sins
And she [D]kissed him for love
She kissed him for luck
She [Dm]kissed him one [D]time [C]for a k[G]id[C][G][C]
Well they [G]came in without a warning in
the hours before morning
They come-a blasting blasting
through the windows and walls
[C]And when the smoke [D]it did clear
somebody cried out he
ain't here
Killed ourselves a woman
that's [Dm]all[D][Dm]
[C]Run [D]Lejos[G] run
[C]This ain't [F]no [C]time for that [G]ball and [D]chain
[C]Run [D]Le [Em]jos run
[D]Climb on that pony and [C]ride
like you never done

[Outro 1]
Ride like you never done
