Well, this is how it starts, [A] two lovers in the dark [B] on the run from the worm that they call [Em] Chef Smog.
Six guns by the side [Am] and bullets round their waist.
[B] Two shots [E] to the sky, signal sign for the chase.
The safe was nearly empty and they were [A] nearly free, [B] but were seen by the good eye of the mean Billy Green.
[Em] And he screamed at the top of [E] his lungs, they're [D] on the run, [E] it's the two [B] outsiders, grab your horses [G] and your guns.
I said I wish that we [A] could stay here, but I fear our time [G] has come.
We'll get right out in [A] the darkness, chasing [G] the rising sun.

[B] They got nothing left to lose, except their guns and their [Em] wounds.
Now the car's on board, [A] the sheriff's posse on their [B] tail.
They'd rather die together than be stuck up in a cell.
[Em] They drank up all the whiskey [Am] and they partied every [B] night, like it could be the last.
The bounty said to shoot on sight.
[Em] Well, they chased it in the summer, knew it [D] came with the [B] fight.
They wouldn't stop running till they found [Em] a paradise.
But the sheriff finally found [A] them with the Zazi in red.
[B] So the lovers [E] had to shoot them down and fill them full of lead.
They were finally free [A] to find a place to lay their [E] head.
And when they finally did, he looked at her and he [G] said,

And we can walk down to [A] the ocean
and sit with the [G] rising sun.
