D 
Got two reasons why I cry away each lonely night, 
Em 
the first one's named Sweet Anne Marie, and she's my hearts delight.

The second one is prison, babe, the sheriff's on my trail, 
Am                                                      C 
and if he catches up with me, I'll spend my life in jail
