Well, first off props to those who helped me get this together...
|littlestein09| I borrowed his layout, though I modified it a bit.
|TheOmegaKitten| Had guitar Solo 1 nailed.
|dudewithaguitar77(Youtube)| Pro-ness on Riffs and Solo 2.
Alrighty, this is seemingly correct. The one thing that is difficult to put
down is the strum pattern. It's simple enough though, you just have to
listen to the song and play along to get the feel. Well hope you enjoy.
If you see any errors, or wana tell me how awsome I am, shoot me an email
or something.

Intro:
Ho-woah-oo-oh-ho-ho-oo-woah- no
Hoo-oo-woo-oo-oo
Ho-oh-oo-woah-oh-oh-oo-woah-no- oo
Hoo-woo-
Verse 1:
Well this is how it starts two lovers in the dark
On the run from the one that they call Sheriff Sparks
Six guns by the side and bullets ?round their waist
Two shots to the sky signal sound for the chase
Guitar Riff 1: (Starts at ?The safe??, Ends at ??his lungs?.)
The safe was nearly empty and they were nearly free
But was seen by the wood eye of the mean Billy Greene
And he screamed at the top of his lungs ?they're on the run!
It's the two outsiders grab yer holsters and yer guns!?
Chorus 1:
I said I wish that we could stay here
But I fear our time has come
Oh we can ride out in the darkness
Chasing the rising sun
We gotta pack our bags this instant
We're heading southbound to the next town
And if we arrive there so safely
Baby you can lay me down
Lay me down
Lay me down
Lay me down
Verse 2:
Well it's the story of the two always on the move
They got nothing left to lose ?cept their guns and they wounds
Now they're crossing borders sheriff's posse on their tail
B (Pause---------->)
They rather die together than be stuck up in a cell
Guitar Riff 2: (Starts at ?They drank??, Ends at ??then he said?.)
They drank up all the whiskey and they partied every night
Like it could be the last the bounty said to shoot on sight
So they chased the endless summer though it came with a price
They wouldn't stop running ?til they found a paradise
But the Sheriff finally found ?em with his eyes seeing red
So the lovers had to shoot him down and fill him full of lead
They were finally free to find a place to lay their head
And when they finally did he looked at her and then he said:
Chorus 2:
I said I wish that we could stay here
But I fear our time has come
Oh we can ride out in the darkness
Chasing the rising sun
We gotta pack our bags this instant
We're heading southbound to the next town
And if we arrive there so safely
Baby you can lay me down
Lay me down
Lay me down
Lay me down
Bridge 1: (Play with the beat, don't try to get it right where I put the G's;
(Am/E)/(Bm/F#) = slide from Am/E to Bm/F#, listen to the song to get it
right.)
Well you're my green eyed girl and I've been running round with you
It's the afternoon and we got nothing left to do
So wipe the dirt off or take yer shirt off
And we should go hit the cantina we got work off
I said it's hot outside let me go swimming in your eyes
We've been running for a while why'oncha lay down make me smile
I could never ask for nothing better than this
It's just tequila and the beach that's why it's salty when we kiss
Chorus 2:
I said I wish that we could stay here
But I fear our time has come
Oh we can ride out in the darkness
Chasing the rising sun
We gotta pack our bags this instant
We're heading southbound to the next town
And if we arrive there so safely
Baby you can lay me down
Lay me down
Lay me down
Lay me down
