TABBED BY: STEVEN STREY

Capo 2

INTRO - C
C        F           C       G
You were born by the railway tracks
C               F   C               G
Never knew your Ma, Pa ain't coming back
C                F    C             G
Had to make your way, best that you can
        F                         G       C
But you didn't have to steal from another man

CHORUS
C        F        C       G
Run boy, run boy, run boy run
C             F            C       G
They're gonna get you boy, run boy run
C             F              C       G
They're gonna catch you boy, run boy run
F                 G        C
Run boy, run boy, run boy, run

PEDAL STEEL GUITAR SOLO

Think you're a man 'cause you turned 21
Shot a man for nothing and off you run
Wanted in most every state from here to Tennessee
If they catch you boy you'll do your running hanging from a tree

CHORUS

PIANO SOLO

Storm clouds looking down from the sky
Hangman's neuce swingin' in a tree near by
Verse on a tombstone won't be read by you
Says, "Running done at 21, won't see 22"

CHORUS
