We took off running into the night
D/C D
It was just me and Mary Lou
D D/C D/B
So please don't worry it'll be alright
D/C D
Cause we were gone before they knew
Cadd9 G D
We been riding for such a long time
Cadd9 G D
Just tryin' to get to Mexico
G C G C
Into the fire with all of our desires
Em A D
With so many miles to go
I'm sure we'll make it before daylight
Yes, we'll be sailin' on soon
So hush now honey, you're all that I
Got left to hold on to
We been waitin' for this time to come
To use our pistols and chance it on the run
Cuttin' right through the darkness of the night
And all we got is 27 dollars and a wedding ring
Took off running into the night
It was just me and Mary Lou
So hush now honey, you're all that I
Got left to hold on to
