Never Trust a Stranger Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][G]

[Verse 1]
We were [Am]riding through
the flatlands
We were searching for two prisoner
Who just broke [G]jail
[Am]A tall one and a lean one
Rode a chestnut [G]stallion
[Am]And the word was that the main man

[Verse 2]
Well he was mean as hell
[Am]
An [Dm]outlaw is a man
Who never understands
A word [Am]called danger
He [Dm]learns to shoot and ride as a child
And to never [Am]trust a stranger
And he's [C]always [E]called a better man
[Am]

[Verse 3]
[G]
We [Am]chased him to the border
All the way to El [G]Paso
The [Am]ride was long, the ride was hard
But the sheriff said we can't
let 'em [G]go
He said [Am]let me tell you something
I've been tracking for a long [G]time
They [Am]never trust a stranger
And they take care of their own

[Verse 4]
[Am]An o[Dm]utlaw is a man
Who never understands
A word [Am]called danger
He [Dm]learns to shoot and ride as a child
And to never [Am]trust a stranger
And he's [C]always [E]called a better man

[Verse 5]
[Am]Today's man is an outlaw
On that long road [G]to freedom
You [Am]work him to take his pride
And then [G]you try [Am]to cheat [G]him
[Am]Then one day you figure out
It's a long long [G]story
An [Am]outlaw is a man who
takes care of his own

[Verse 6]
An [Dm]outlaw is a man
Who never understands
A word [Am]called danger
He [Dm]learns to shoot and ride
as a child
And to never trust [Am]a stranger
And he's al[C]ways [Am]call[E]ed

[Outro 1]
a better man
