Hợp âm The Running Gun

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
I [D]pulled[G][A][G]
[D]out of Kansas City,
headin' south [G]to Mexico
Run[A]nin', dodgin', danger
left a girl [G]that I loved [D]so
Far behind lay Kansas City
and the [G]past that I had earned
Twenty [A]notches on my six -gun
marked the [G]lessons I had [D]learned
Many [G]times I sold my fast gun
for a [D]place to lay my head
Till the [G]nights began to haunt me
by the [D]men that I left [A]there
Couldn't [D]stand it any longer
with this [G]life that I'd begun
So I [A]said goodbye to Jeannie
and be[G]came a running [D]gun
I pulled into Amarillo
as the [G]sun sank in the west
My [A]thoughts in Kansas City
with the girl [G]I loved the b[D]est
How she smiled and kissed me gently
as I [G]turned away to go
Said I'd [A]send for her to meet me
when I [G]reached New Mexico
[D]I had bar[G]ely left the saddle
when my [D]foot just touched the ground
When [G]a cold voice from the shadows
told me [D]not to turn [A]around
Said he knew [D]about my fast gun,
knew the price [G]of being by the law
Challenged [A]by a bounty hunter,
so I [G]turned around to [D]draw.
[G][A]
[G][D][G][A]
[G][D]
I knew someday I'd meet him,
his [G]hand like lightning flashed
My [A]own gun stood in leather
while his [G]bullet tore its [D]pad
Now my strength is slowly fading,
I can [G]see him walk away
I [A]know that where I lie tonight,
[G]he too must lie [D]someday
Now a [G]crowd is slowly gathering
and my [D]eyes are growing dim
My [G]thoughts return to Jeannie
and the [D]home that we had [A]planned
Won't you tell her for [D]me, mister,
she's [G]still the only one
But a [A]woman's love is wasted
when [G]she loves a run -and [D]-gun
A [A]woman's love is wasted
when she [G]loves a run -and [D]-gun
