[D] [A] [D]
I pulled into the regular [G] pump I was feeling [D] quite a deep
I rolled down the window and told the [E] man fifty [A] cents worth please
[G] Then I jumped my partner [D] with his trusty pellet gun
Said boy this is a hold up, [A] keep a pump in [D] and don't run it
[G] Now I wish I was [A] somewhere [D] other than here
[G] Down [A] in some honky [E] tonk, sipping [A] on a beer
[G] Yes I wish I was somewhere [D] other than here
[G] Because that great bill of [D] station hold [A] up cost me [D] two good years
We got fifteen dollars [G] and a can of [D] STP
Big old jar of cashew [E] nuts and a [A] Japanese TV
[G] Feeling we had pulled the [D] biggest heist of our career
We're wanted men, we'll strike [A] again, but first let's [D] have beer
[G] Now I wish [A] I was somewhere [D] other than here
[G] Down [A] in some honky [E] tonk, sipping [A] on a beer
Yes I wish I was somewhere [D] other than here
[G] Because that great bill of [D] station hold [A] up
cost me [D] two good years
[G] [D]
[E] [A] [G]
[D]
[A] [D]
We was sitting in the crystal about [G] as drunk as we [A] could be
[D] Then walked the deputy sheriff and [E] he's holding our [A] TV
[G] Ruffed us and he cuffed us [D] and he took us all to jail
No pictures on a poster, [A] no reward and [D] no fail
Now [G] I wish I [A] was somewhere other [D] than here
Down
[G] in [A] some honky [E] tonk, sipping [A] on a beer
[G] Yes I wish [A] I was somewhere other [D] than here
[G] Because that great bill of [D] station hold up [A] cost me [D] two good years
Yes that great bill of station hold up, [A] it cost me two [D] good years
