[E] I was always quick to strike, had everything [A] I owned, and the saddle's on my back.
I had a [E] reputation for never staying very long, just like a wild and restless drifter,
like a cowboy in a song.
[A] [E] I met a dark-haired beauty, well, she laid the whiskey [D] down, in southern Arizona, in
a little border town.
[C#m] She had to dance for money, in that dusty old saloon.
I [E] dropped a dollar in the jukebox, played that girl a tune, yeah.
[A] You never see it coming, it [D] just hits you [A] by surprise, [E] it's that cold place in your
soul, [B] and that fire in her [D] eyes, that makes you come together, [A] like wild horses when they run.
Now [E] the cards are on the table, [D] and the bullets in the gun.
[E]
She's sitting on my lap, we still had shots to kill, when [Bm] a man pulled up along the bar
in a Cadillac DeVille.
[A] Grabbed her by her raven hair and threw her in the floor, said [E] no free rides for the cowboys,
[D] that ain't what I pay you for, no.
She [E] jumped up and grabbed my pistol, stuck it in the fat man's back, [D] said open up the
safe and put your money in the sack.
[A] Tied his hands behind him and put a blindfold on his eyes, [E] if you're dumb enough to chase
this man, [D] you're dumb enough to die.
[E]
[A] You never see it coming, it [D] just hits you [A] by surprise, [E] it's that cold place in your
soul, [B] and that fire in her eyes, [D] that makes you come together, [A] like wild horses when they run.
[E] Now the cards are on the table, [D] and the bullets in the gun.
[E]
We rode across the border, down into Mexico, [D] when you're running from the law, ain't that
where everybody goes.
[E] [A] We came to a town with a name I couldn't spell, [E] she gave me what I came for in that Mexican motel.
I woke up to sirens, and the sound of running feet, [D] there were fifty Federales locked and
loaded in the street.
[A] She grabbed my 44, I grabbed the money in the sack, [E] she kissed me for the last time,
[D] and we headed out to fight.

[Bm] [D]
[Em] [E]
Every gun was on us, and every heartbeat [D] pounded, and there was only one thing left to do, when
they got you all surrounded.
[A] She fired that old pistol, but you didn't stand to hear [E] prayer, the money hit the gravel,
[Bm] bullets filled the air.
[N]
[A] You never see it coming, [D] just get you [A] by surprise, [E] it's that cold place in your soul, and [B] that
fire in her [D] eyes, that makes you come together, [A] like wild horses when they run.
Now [E] the cards are on the table, and [D] the bullets in the gun.
[E]
Bullets in [D] the gun.
[A]
Bullets [E] in the gun.
Bullets in the [D] gun.
