A        D         A        E 
You were born by a railroad track 
A               D           A               E

Had to make your way the best you can 
        D                          E      A  
But you didn't have to steal from another man

A                D        A          E 
Shot a man for nothin' and away you run 
A                     D          A         E 
Wanted in most every state from here to Tennessee 
    D                                   E             A

A       D       A       E    A             D           A       E

They're gonna catch you, boy run boy run, run boy run boy run boy run 


A              D           A       E 
Storm clouds lookin' down from the sky 
A                    D            A         E 
And hangman's noose swingin' on a tree near by 
A                  D        A                    E 
The words on that tombstone that won't be read by you 
  D                            E         A 
Says his runnin's done at twenty one he won't see twenty two 



A       D       A       E    A             D           A       E
