[Cm] I didn't mean to end his life, I know it was a right
I [Bb] can't even sleep and I can't get it out my mind
I [Cm] need to get out of sight before I end up behind [Bb] bars
What [Cm] started out as a simple altercation Turns [Bb] into a real sticky situation
I'm just [Ab] thinking of the time that I'm past that makes [Bb] me wanna throw
[Cm] up
Cause I didn't mean [Bb] to hurt him, could've been [Cm] somebody's son
And I took [Bb] his heart when I pulled out [Cm] that gun
Rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum, [Bb] rum pum pum pum
Man [Ab] down, rum pum pum pum, rum [D] pum pum pum, [Bb] rum pum pum pum
Man down, mum [Cm] mum mum mum mum, I [Bb] just shot a man down
[Cm] Into a station, in [Bb] front of a big old crowd
[Cm]
[Bb] Oh
[Ab] mum mum mum mum mum, [Bb] I just shot a man down
Into [Cm] a station, who I call a Peggy Sue
And she [Bb] fits right down in my shoes, what you expect me to do
If [Cm] you're playing me for a fool, I will lose my cool
[Bb] And reach for my firearm, I didn't [Cm] mean to lay him down
But his fool [Bb] head's a turn back now
Don't [Ab] know what I was thinking, now he's no longer living
[Bb] So I'm about to leave town
[Cm] Yeah, cause I didn't mean [Bb] to hurt him, could've been [Cm] somebody's son
And [D] I took [Bb] his heart when I pulled out that [Cm] gun
Rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum, [Bb] rum pum pum pum
Man [Ab] down, rum pum pum pum, rum [D] pum pum pum, [Bb] rum pum pum pum
Man [Cm] down, mum mum mum mum mum, I [Bb] just shot a man down
Into [Cm] a station, in [Bb] front of a big old crowd
[Cm]
[Bb]
[Ab] Oh mum mum mum mum mum, [Bb] I just shot a man down
[Cm] Into a station, and I never thought I'd do it
Never thought I'd do [Bb] it, never thought I'd do it
Oh gosh, [Cm] whatever happened to me
Whatever happened to [Bb] me, whatever happened to me
Why [Cm] did I pull the trigger, pull the trigger, pull the trigger
[Bb]
And end my life so soon
[Ab] When I pull the trigger, pull the trigger, pull it on you
[Bb] Somebody tell me what I'm gonna, what I'm gonna do
[Cm] Rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum, rum [Bb] pum pum pum
Me say one man down, how I'm gonna [Cm] live
Rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum, rum [Bb] pum pum pum
When me went downtown, cause now I [Cm] am a criminal, criminal, criminal
Oh [Bb] Lord have mercy, now I am a criminal
Man down, [Ab] tell the judge please give me minimal
Run [Bb] out the town, none of them can see me now, see me now
Oh [Cm] mum mum mum mum mum mum, I [Bb] just shot a man down
Into [Cm] a station, in [Bb] front of a big old crowd
[Cm] Oh
