[Bb] [Cm] I was just a [Eb] boy when they tied me to that tree
[Bb] They hung my daddy's brother, left [Cm] him swinging over me
I went off to get my vengeance [Eb] underneath the flag of red
[Bb] And that angel on my shoulder, [Cm] she had spoke to me since then
Hey, [C] hey, hey
[D] [Eb]

I tried my hand [Cm] at working, [Eb] but working was not me
So [Bb] I left my wife and children [Cm] in a state of misery
I went off to make my living for [Eb] my daughter and my son
[Bb] And I found an occupation [Fm] at the wrong end of a gun
Oh, [Cm] I'm here [G] looking up [Eb] at the gravity of the room
[Bb] I want you, my friend
[G] I guess I was a fool, there's [Ab] no pain, only [Bb] blood
And [Cm] the smoke from your gun, and [Fm] I ain't [Gm] on the run [Cm] anymore
[Eb] [Bb]
[Gm] [C]
[G] [Eb] [Bb] I [Eb] [C] [Cm] joined a band of brothers, [Eb] no one was there
And those brothers took my name
We [Gm] were feared across the country as the gang [Cm] of Jesse James
Some folks call me a hero, but [Eb] those folks don't know me well
[Gm] There's no place for me in heaven, [Fm] there's no peace for me in hell
[F]
Oh, [Cm] I'm here [Gm] looking up at [Eb] the cracks in the roof
[Bb] I thought you were my friend, but [G] I guess I was a fool
There's [Ab] no pain, only [Bb] blood
And [Cm] the smoke from your gun, and [Fm] I ain't on [Gm] the run [Cm] anymore
No, [Fm] I ain't on [Gm] the run [G] No, [Ab] anymore

[Ab] [Cm]
[Gm] [Eb]
[Bb] Sure, [Cm] my brother, but [Eb] now it's come to this
[Bb] You'll be off to get your silver, [Cm] just like Judas with no kiss
And that angel on my shoulder [Gm] looked me deeply in the eye
As she turned to face the doorway, I could [Fm] hear that angel cry
Lying [Cm] here looking up [Eb] at the cracks in the roof
[Bb] Well, I thought you were my friend, [G] but I guess I was a fool
[Ab] With my cold, 44, [Bb] [Cm] I'm cold on the floor
[Fm] And I ain't [Gm] on the [Cm] run anymore
No, [Fm] I [Gm] ain't on the run [G] No, [C] anymore
