Intro:(A G)4x 

  A                          G 
   His necktie is bright red, from lookin' in one direction 
  A                          G 
   No flowerchild in his bed, he's got oil well protection 
  A                           G 
   Just had to be a blind dog, chewin' on everything 
  A                                  G 
   Took a slice of the blackbird pie, she began her singing 

   A                Bb            C                     G 
   I know that your oil is black, but your dipstick is pearly White 
   A           Bb              C                G 
   Ten gallons on your head, that ain't what I need tonight 

  Bm                C     G 
   Showdown at the border 
  Bm                C     G 
   Showdown at the border 
  Bm                C      
   Showdown at the border 

  A                          G 
   The rendezvous was neutral, he don't want no gossip headlines 
  A                       G 
   Her polaroid blackmail, he said,"No way I've had mine." 
  A                              G 
   Just too much for him to lose, because of some cuervo passion 
  A                      G 
   Cold, cold forty-five, answered in Texas fashion 


   A                Bb            C                     G 
   I know that your oil is black, but your dipstick is pearly White 
   A           Bb              C                G 
   Ten gallons on your head, that ain't what I need tonight 


  Bm                C     G 
   Showdown at the border 
  Bm                C     G 
   Showdown at the border 
  Bm                C

  B                C#m        A 
   Bright red went to his head 
  B          C#m      A   A7    
   Tequila tension rising 

 Bm 
   This is no business for the weak at heart 
   This is no business for those with a nervous, disposition 
 B 
   This is no business for the weak at heart 
   This is no business for those with a nervous, disposition 

  B                   C#m     A 
   Tanned man from the F.E.D.'s 
  B             C#m             A 
   Cool mohair buying off the squeeze 
  Bm                C     G 
   Showdown at the border
