                     A                A 
              with a girl named Linda Lou 
                   D                      D 
              When in walked a man with a gun in his hand 
                     E                    A 
              he was looking for you know who.

              and I know you don't owe me but I wish you would let me 
              A                   D 
              ask one favour from you

                    D                    D 
           O well the crowd cleared away and I began to pray 
                      A                      A 
              and the water fell down to the floor 
                      D                    D 
              and I'm telling you, son, it ain't no fun, 
                      E                      A 
              staring straight down a fourty-four. 
                       D                      D 
              Well, he turned and screamed at Linda Lou, 
                             G                   E 
              and that's the break I was looking for 
                            D                   D 
              and you could hear me screaming a mile away 
                       A                     D 
              as I was headed out toward the door. 

              REPEAT CHORUS.
