[Intro 1]
[A][D][A][D]
[G][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
I saw her [A]standin'
on her [D]front lawn
Just a [A]twirlin' her bat[D]on
Me and [G]her went for a [D]ride, sir
And [A]ten innocent people [D]died

[Verse 2]
From the [A]town of Lincoln, Ne[D]braska
With a sawed-off [A].410 on my [D]lap
Through the [G]badlands of Wy[D]oming
I killed [A]everything in my [D]path
[A][D]

[Verse 3]
I can't [A]say that I'm [D]sorry
For the [A]things that we [D]done
At least [G]for a little [D]while, sir
Me and [A]her, we had us some [D]fun

[Verse 4]
Now, the [A]jury brought in a guilty [D]verdict
And the [A]judge, he sentenced me to [D]death
Mid[G]night in a prison [D]storeroom
With leather [A]straps across my [D]chest

[Verse 5]
Sheriff, when the [A]man pulls that [D]switch, sir
And [A]snaps my poor head [D]back
You make [G]sure my pretty [D]baby
Is sittin' [A]right there on my [D]lap

[Interlude 1]
[A][D][A][D]

[Verse 6]
They de[A]clared me unfit [D]to live
Said into that [A]great void my soul'd be [D]hurled
They want to [G]know why I did what [D]I did
Well, sir, I guess there's just a [A]meanness
in this [D]world

[Outro 1]
[A][D][A][D]
[G][D][A][D]
