------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joe Purdy - Outlaws ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: David Bryan Email: david.c.bryan@gmail.com I counldn't find anything else out there, so I tabbed this by ear, it should be pretty close. Tuning: Standard Dm C F Bb One more drink 'fore he split town, pulled up in a rose pink Cadillac Dm C F Bb He was singin' with the top down girl from the north, Dylan and Johnny Cash Dm C F Bb He won the car on a card game listenin' to The Boss, he keeps his clothes in a gunney sack F Bb C Dm She said, "Tell you what sailor, if you take me outta here, I'll do anything that you ask, F Bb C F Bb-F 'Cause I don't wanna die like the people down here but I feel that I'm fading fast." C Dm F Bb He looked over to her chestnut hair, he said "I don't believe in love." C Bb F Bb But he knew good and well she was the only girl there, so he figured it was close enough Dm C F Bb And they hopped in the car, rolled the windows down far,and they headed through the desert plains Dm C F Bb And she didn't even mind when they crossed the state line and the sky opened up with rain Dm C F Bb And they went three states 'fore they even spoke a word, he leaned over just to ask her name F Bb C Dm She said, "Take me to the 61 highway, sailor, and you can call me Queen Jane, F Bb C F Bb-F 'Cause the only thing I stole from the town was a crown that I took from a beauty queen." C Dm F Bb And he looked over to her deep green eyes, knew that she was just as cold as him C Dm F Bb So he went to the trunk, grabbed the pistol from inside, and told Janey of his plan Dm C F Bb And they went to the store she put the gas in the car, he came out running with a case of beer Dm C F Bb And he jumped in the back with the money in the sack and Janey she took the wheel Dm C F Bb And they ran off in a blaze in a sweet summer haze, to the bullets of the cashier F Bb C Dm "You keep your head down sailor 'cause I might need ya' later, just holler if you can hear, F Bb C F Bb-F 'Cause I'm gonna need a man, not a farmer girl tan and a cadillac souvenir." C Dm F Bb And they camped out by the railroad bridge, and they made love all night, C Dm F Bb Bb-Bb-Bb Watched the sun come up over Mercury Ridge, from a hilltop outta sight. Dm C F Bb They hit five more banks and their small-town safes and they knew that they could get out fast Dm C F Bb Had the time of their life but they had to have a talk, 'cause they knew that it couldn't last Dm C F Bb They made friends with the man at the Mexico border, and they left him with a bag of cash F Bb C Dm She said, "I tell you what, sailor, I don't care about that paper but I'm happy that we passed, F Bb C F Bb-F 'Cause I'm feeling pretty tired and I'm carrying a child and we both need a rest." C Dm F Bb And they settled down to a house near the water, where they would live to be old and grey C Dm F Bb And many years later and the kids are all older, and they tell 'em 'bout the good ole' days.
