[Intro 1]
[Am]
[F][G][Am][F]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[Am]We saddled
up and headed [G]off to North Dakota
[Am]The ground was frozen
and that [G]winter really showed us.
[F]It was cold, but[E] I was col[F]der.
I shot the sheriff just be
[E]low the shoulder.
[Am]The law was coming and h[G]ot on our trail.
[Am]If they catch us,
we will [G]not make [F]bail.
We were
[E]We outlaws, never in -laws
[F]We always lived our days
[E]without a cause
[Am]We had no conscience and
we [G]had no whiskey
[Am]Said she was single and
her [G]name was Risky
[F]How would we know
about those [E]lies that she told?
[F]But the bank we robbed it
held the [E]judge's gold
[F]Shots rang out and a [C]man went [G]down
[F]They drew first and we [C]hit the [G]ground
[F]We got away like we [C]always [G]do
[F]Down with the devil
[G]And the North Dakota blu[Am]es
We made our way up to
that [G]Red River Valley
[Am]Lost for a moment
down in [G]Dead Man's Alley.
[F]I don't regret how i[E]t all started.
[F]It's quite easy lying to the
[E]broken [Am]hearted.
All of this trouble for [G]just one kiss.
[Am]The moral of the story in
[G]case you missed it.
[F]Never trust a woman
[E]who says her name is Risky
[F]And make damn sure you don[E]'t run out of whiskey
[Am][F][G][Am][F]
[G][Am][F][G][Am][F]
[G]
[F]Shots rang out and a [C]man went [G]down
[F]They drew first and we [C]hit the [G]ground
[F]We got away like we [C]always [G]do
[F]Down with the [G]devil
And the North Dakota [Am]blues
[F]We had those [G]North
Dakota [Am]blues
[F]Don't catch those [G]North Dakota [Am]blues
[F][G][Am][F][G]
[Am][F][G][Am][F][G]
[Am]mu sic music m[F]u si[G]c
[Am]musi[F]c yo[G]u[Am]
