Tom: F#m
A
Cutest girl I ever saw, did I love her?
Dm A
Then why'd I go and do something so cruel?
Dm A Dm
I married her on that summer day, did I love her?
A E A
Well she said 'yes' so she must have been a fool.
A
On our honeymoon night, instead of making sweet love
Dm A
I sat her down and confessed my true history.
Dm A Dm
I said, 'Baby, I love you and I hope you know you're a gift from above,
A E A
But I killed twenty men and the devil's after me.
[Pre-Chorus]
E Dm A
Well, she said that's okay, I don't care dear, cause I love you anyways.
E Dm A
Honey, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do so be strong, and be brave.
Cm E
Well, I'll try, you know I'll try.
[Chorus]
A E Dm A
And God said, 'It is good, and man and woman should,
A E Dm A
Become one and be fruitful. Well, we would, if we could,
A E Dm A
But we're running from the law and living in a shack,
A E Dm A
And I'm gonna burn in hell for corrupting my better half.
[Verse 2]
A
Cruisin' down the highway going 95.
Dm A
We're robbing convenience stores and trying to stay alive.
Dm A Dm
I'm sorry I killed that man back there, can you ever forgive me,
A E A
For bringing you into my life when I should've let you be.
[Pre-Chorus]
E Dm A
Well, she said that's okay, I don't care dear, cause I love you anyways.
E Dm A
Honey, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do so be strong, and be brave.
Cm E
Well, I'll try, you know I'll try.
[Chorus]
A E Dm A
And God said, 'It is good, and man and woman should,
A E Dm A
Become one and be fruitful. Well, we would, if we could,
A E Dm A
But we're running from the law and living in a shack,
A E Dm A
And I'm gonna burn in hell for corrupting my better half.
Then he does a little 'solo,' which is just playing through the verse chords once. If
lift your finger off the 2nd string in the A chord and the first string the Dm chord every
and a while it sounds sort of like what he does.
[Verse 3]
A
Well, the cops found our hideout and they shot her.
Dm A
Why'd they go and do something so cruel.
Dm A Dm
She died in my arms, I had to leave her.
A E A
I'm sorry my love for being such a fool.
[Pre-Chorus]
E Dm A
Well, she said that's okay, I don't care dear, cause I love you anyways.
E Dm A
Honey, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do so be strong, and be brave.
Cm E
Well, I'll try, you know I'll try.
[Chorus]
A E Dm A
And God said, 'It is good, and man and woman should
A E Dm A
Become one and be fruitful.' Well, I would, if I could.
A E Dm A
But I'm running from the law and the cops shot down my shack.
A E Dm A
And I'm gonna burn in hell for corrupting my better half...
A E Dm A
I'm gonna burn in hell for corrupting my better half...
A E Dm A
I'm gonna burn in hell for killing my better half.
