[G] [F] [Am]
[G] [Am]
Bruce and Ed and I walked [F] into Old Happy's food [G] mart.
Bruce and Ed were brothers [F] and they were not [Am] very smart.
But I needed some men fast to [F] help me with this one big score.
[G] That I'd never have to ride [F] to the [Am] grocery store.
Fill the bag with money, [F] I said to the [G] cashier.
Fill the bag with [Em] money, [F] honey, and [Am] we'll get out of here.
But it drifted off, and [F] all hell broke loose.
[Em] The bag boy, he pulled out a gun [Am] and he blew a hole through Bruce.
It caught the bag boy in the chest [F] with both barrels from his [Em] 12.
[G] The bag boy flew back 20 feet [Am] into the produce shelf.
That was for my brother, [F] it shattered through his [G] tears.
Now he'd face the electric [Am] chair instead of 15.
[F] [G]
[Em] [Am]
[F] [G]
[Am] Well I grabbed that bag of money [F] and I headed for the door.
[G]
Didn't want to die [F] in some stinking [Am] grocery store.
But the parking lot was already [F] crawling thick with cops.
[G] Which you get when you rob a store around the [Am] corner from a thoney shop.
Sheriff Big Nick Turner, he was running the whole show.
[G] Said throw your guns down, come on out [Am] boys, let them people go.
You boys don't stand a chance, [F] your little eyes fail.
[G] But I knew Big Nick Turner, [C] he ain't never [Am] reach his jail.
I looked up through the window [F] to see what was going on.
[G] A bullet pierced his forehead [F] and the back [Am] of his head was gone.
Cashiers, they were screaming, [F] dead brains were everywhere.
[G] I seen Big Nick was robbed, he wasn't [F] getting [Am] out of there.
[F] [G]
[Am]
[F] [G]
[F] [Am] Then a cop with a bunch of folks got [F] out, it was my mom and dad.
[G] My daddy yelled, I can't get out, [F] I'm stuck.
[Am] You're really in it this time, [F] you're really in it deep.
[G] I hope they blow your head off, [F] you're good [Am] for nothing creep.
Sheriff Big Nick Turner yelled, [F] get them out of here.
[G] I sent the cashier to [Am] the stocker, bring them back some beer.
The family plan had failed, Plan B was coming soon.
Was [G]
starring in my very own, [Am] The Dark of the Afternoon.
[F] [G]
[F] [Am]
[F] [G]
[C] [Am]
Then they brought a woman out, [F] my true love Madeline.
[G] She left me seven months [F] before and I [Am] hadn't seen her since.
She left me four miles [F] at the bowling alley [Em] bar.
[G] She left him two weeks later [F] for some [Am] guy who sold me scars.
I said Frankie, please come out of there, [F] you're in an awful jam.
[G]
Frankie, please come out of [F] there, we can [Am] start again.
While you're away in prison, [F] I will wait faithfully.
[G]
Frankie, I do love you, [F] please come on [Am] out for me.
Well, I knew that she was lying, [F] cause she never told the truth.
[G] I knew that I would get the chair, they'd never let [Am] me loose.
For my true love Madeline, [F] I threw my gun out on the ground.
[G] Call it Big Nick Turner, I'm coming out.
[F] Please don't [Am] cut me down.
[F] [G]
[B] [Am]
[F] [G]
[Am] Well, they didn't give me death, they gave me 60 years.
[G] So I think it's safe to say that [F] I'll be [Em] dying here.
[Am] And Madeline, Big Nick Turner, that hottest thing in [Em] town.
Was a lovesick fool and had a [F] chance, should've shot [Am] him down.
I [F] should've [G] shot him down.
[Am] Down, down, down, down, down.
[F] I should've [G] shot him down.
[Am] Oh Madeline, [F] I should've [G] shot you down.
[F] Should've shot you, [Am] should've shot you, Madeline.
[F] I should've [G] shot you down.
[Am] Should've shot you, should've shot you, Madeline.
[F] Should've shot you, [Am] should've [G] shot you, Madeline.
[Am] I should've shot you down.
[F] [D] Should've [G] shot you down.
