[Dm]
I'm going to go out west, I'm going to find us a place where we can raise a family.
I'll come back here.
She's been running with the devil and it ain't no lie.
[Em] [Dm] Living in the shadows of the pale moonlight.
[G] [D] She's been running with the angels everyone could [Dm] see.
[D] God fearing church going on her [Dm] sleeve.
[Em] [D] [Dm]
[Em] [Dm] That silver tongue devil swept her off her feet.
[E] [Dm] Promised her the world just to steal her dreams.
[E] [D] Knew it was coming, it was his last [Dm] night.
[Em] [D] Lord, when they caught him should have heard him [Dm] cry.
[Em] [D] Good Lord [Dm] willing in the creek don't rise.
Town folk [D] hollering hang him up high.
Sin is sin in the good Lord's eye.
And the hangman's waiting just to watch you die.
Dead man walking.
[Dm] Dead man walking.
[D] Said I didn't do it now that's the [Dm] truth.
Tell me how I could have cause there ain't no proof.
[Am] [D] The old man said boy we ain't no [Dm] fools.
[D] You're going to meet your maker at the end of that [Dm] noose.
[D] Good Lord willing in the creek don't rise.
Town folk [G] hollering hang him up [D] high.
Sin is sin in the good Lord's eye.
And the hangman's waiting just to watch you die.
Dead man walking.
Dead man walking.
[Dm]
Heading to the gallows you can hear him say.
[G] [D] Baby girl promise it'll be [Dm] okay.
She begged and pleaded said you have to wait.
The law man said girl you're way too late.
[D] Good Lord willing in the creek don't rise.
Town folk hollering hang him up [Dm] high.
Sin is sin in the good [Am] Lord's eye.
And the hangman's [Gm] waiting just to [D] watch you die.
Good Lord willing in the creek don't rise.
Town folk [Dm] hollering hang him up [D] high.
Sin is sin in the good Lord's eye.
But you might have got [Dm] it wrong if the hangman cried.
[Em] [D] [Dm]
[Am] [Dm] Scrub him up high swinging side by side.
[Am] [Dm] Devil on the left and an angel on the right.
[A] Dead man [D] walking.
[N]
