Bb
Sling your hook in with him baby
Ab
He's a real sharp-shooter now
Eb
If he's out there hiding in the tall grass
Eb\Bb Bb Bb Eb\Bb Bb Eb\Bb Bb Bb
Tell him I said he was a cow- ard
Bb
This ain't any old western honey
Ab
It's the twentieth century now
Eb
But if he thinks he's some kind of tough cowboy
Eb\Bb Bb Bb Eb\Bb Bb Eb\Bb Bb Bb
And he's hurt her then I want to know how- ow
Eb\Bb Bb Bb Eb\Bb Bb Bb
Did he shoot her with his com- promise
Ab6 Ab Ab Cm\G G G
Like a heart at-tack he can par- alyse
Cm
Or did he hang her in a noose
F Eb\Bb Bb Bb Eb\Bb Bb Bb
On the telephone li- ine
Eb\Bb Bb Bb Eb\Bb Bb Bb
Did he shoot her with a for- ty five
Ab6 Ab Ab Cm\G G G
Did he leave his mark right between her eyes
Cm
Oh did he shoot that girl
F Eb\Bb Bb Bb Eb\Bb Bb Bb
That used to be mi- ine
Bb
Tell him I'm ready any time he chooses
Ab
The pay-off for the things, for the things he's done
Eb
He ain't messing with no two-bit bandit
Eb\Bb Bb Bb Eb\Bb Bb Bb
Armed with a cou- ple of guns
Bb
If he wants to see it as a two reel movie
Ab
He's living in the head of someone else
Eb
But better take him down and dust him honey
Eb\Bb Bb Bb Bb Eb\Bb Bb Bb
I want to hear the truth for my-self
(CHORUS)
Eb\Bb Bb Bb Eb\Bb Bb Bb
Did he shoot her
Eb\Bb Bb
Did he shoot her
