[C#] [G] [E]
I'm a wacko, I'm a waco, ain't no doubt about it, shot a man there in the head but can't
talk much about it, [A] he's trying to shoot me, but he took too long to aim, [E] anybody in my
place would have done the same, [B] I don't start fights, I finish fights, that's the way I'll
always be, [E] I'm a wacko, I'm a waco, you best not mess with me, Joe Jamel said I was like
a fly in buttermilk, trapped in a waco bottle, I was bound to get killed, [A] Dar Jamel said
Billy, Houston's where you need to be, [E] if you're going back to Waco, you're leaving
without me, [B] it's nice to be important, oh important to be nice, [E] if you're shooting
dice in Waco, you'll roll snake eyes every time,
[D]
Dick DeGarren took my case and didn't
charge a thing, he said Waco bells would be easy to unring, [G] Willie Nelson, Bob Duvall
and Logan V2, [D] stood right up for me, the way they always do, [A] I'm damned if I don't,
damned if I do, [F] [D] I'm a wacko from Waco, I'm telling you the truth, [E]
I was born in Coors
County, they said Billy can you do it, I said of course I can, just point it out and I'll
get right to it, [A] Coors County, Texas has been real good to me, [E] they knew I had to
shoot that man before that man shot me, [B] I should have known the truth, would finally
set me free, [E] I guess living down in Waco made it wacko out of me, a wacko from Waco is still
on the run, a writer, a singer, a son of a gun, [A] don't cross him, don't boss him, stay
out of his way, [E] don't give him no trouble, cause you'll just make his day, [B] I'm damned
if I don't, damned if I do, [E] I'm a wacko from Waco, I'm telling you the truth, [B] I'm damned
if I don't, damned if I do, [E] I'm a wacko from Waco, you finally heard the truth.
