Outlaws Chords by Joe Purdy

[Dm] One more drink [C] for a split town pulled up [F] in a rose pink [Gm] Cadillac
He [Dm] was singin' with the top [C] down girl from the north, [F] Dylan and Johnny [Bb] Cash
[Dm] Won the car on a card [C] game, listen to the boss that [F] keeps his clothes [C] in a gunny [Bb] sack
She [F] said, tell you what sailor, [Bb] if you take me out of here, [C] I'll do anything that you [Dm] ask
[F] Cause I don't wanna [Bb] die like the people down here, but [C] I feel that I'm fading [F] fast
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] He looked over [Dm] to a chestnut hair, he [F] said, I don't believe in [Bb] love
[C] But he knew good and well she [Dm] was the only girl there, [F] so he figured it was close [Bb] enough _ _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] And they hooked in the [C] car, rolled the windows down [F] far, and they headed through the desert [Gm] plains
[Dm] And she didn't even [C] mind when they crossed the state [F] line, and the sky opened up [Bb] with rain
[Dm] And there was three states [C] before they even spoke a word, [F] he leaned over just to [Bb] ask her name
She [F] said, take me to the [Bb] 61 highway [C] sailor and you can call me Queen [Dm] Jane
[F] Cause the only thing I stole [Bb] from the town was a [C] crown that I took from a beauty [F] queen _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] And he looked [Dm] over to her deep green [F] eyes, knew that she was just [Bb] as cold as him
[C] So he went to the [Dm] trunk, grabbed a pistol from the [F] side, and told Janie of [Bb] his plan _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] And he went to the [C] stuffs, put the gas in the [F] car, he came out running with a [Gm] case of beer
[Dm] And he jumped in the [C] back with the money in the [F] sack, and Janie, she took the [Bb] wheel
[Dm] And they ran off in a [C] blaze, in a sweet summer [F] haze, threw the [C] bullets to the [Bb] cashier
[F] Keep your head down sailor, [Bb] cause I might need you later, [C] just holler if you can hear
[Dm] _
[F] Cause I'm gonna need a man, [Bb] not a farmer girl tan [C] and a Cadillac souvenir
[F] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] And they camped out [Dm] by the railroad bridge, [F] and they laid love all [Bb] night
[C] Watched the sun come up [Dm] over Mercury Ridge from [F] a hilltop out of [Bb] sight _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ They [Dm] hit five more banks [C] in the small town [F] safe, and they knew they could get [Gm] out fast
[Dm] In the time of the life, [C] but they had to have a talk, [F] cause they knew that it couldn't [Bb] last
They [Dm] made friends with the man [C] at the Mexico border, [F] and they left him with a bag of [Bb] cash
She [F] said, today what sailor, [Bb] don't care about the paper, [C] but I'm happy that we [Dm] passed
[F] Cause I'm feeling pretty tired, [Bb] and I'm carrying a child, [C] and we both need a [F] rest _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] And they settled down [Dm] to a house in the water [F] where they would live to be [Bb] old and gray
[C] And many years [D] later, the kids are all [F] older, and they tell them about the good [Bb] old days _ _ _ _ _
