[Am] We were riding through the flatlands, we were searching for the prisoners that broke it.
Tall one and mean one, rode a titbit stallion.
[Em]
[Am] And the word was from the main man, he was mean as hell.
[Dm] Now the law is a man that never understands [Am] the words called danger.
[Dm] Learned to see right as a child, never [Am] trusted strangers.
He said, hey,
[C] [E] short, [Am] bitter man.
[C]
[Am] [G]
[Am] We chased him to the border, all the way through El Paso.
[G]

[G] [Am] He said, let me tell you something, [C] I've been tracking [Am] for a long time.
