D
I know you'll excuse me if I say goodnight
G D A
I've got a promise to fulfill
Bm D
Thank you for listening to my troubles
G D
Pardon me, I've got someone to kill
D
I warned him not to try and take her from me
G D A
He laughed and said if I can I will you know I will
Bm D
So tonight when they get home I'll be waiting
G D
Pardon me, I've got someone to kill
A D
I know I'll surely die for what I'm about to do
G D A
But it don't matter I'm a dead man anyhow
Bm D
This gun will buy back the pride they took from me
G D A
And also end this life of mine, that's worthless now
D
By the time you tell the sheriff, it'll all be over
G D A
He'll find me at their big house on the hill
Bm D
He'll find a note explaining why I killed us all
G D
Now it's time to go, I've got someone to kill
