The buoys - Give up your guns
Intro
Bm F#m Bm F#m
Bm F#m Bm F#m
When I woke up this morning, I found myself alone
G A Bm A
I turned to touch her hair, but she was gone, she was gone
F#m Bm F#m Bm
And there beside my pillow were her tears from the night before
G A Bm Bmsus2 Bm
she said give up your guns and face the law
Bm F#m Bm F#m
I robbed a bank in Tampa and I thought I had it made
G A Bm A
But the hounds picked up my trail within the Glades, so I ran
F#m Bm F#m Bm
And I stumbled on this cabin, and she came to me once more
G A Bm Bmsus2 Bm
She said give up your guns and face the law
G A D C G F#m
I don't wanna leave her, I don’t wanna die
C G C F#m
Deep within the cold, cold grave with no one ‘round to cry
G A D C G F#m
But I got my pistol, now it’s time to choose
C G C F#m // stop
Shootin' here or hanging there in either way I’ll loose
Bm F#m Bm F#m
And now I'm in this cabin, where my own true love should be
G A Bm A
Instead there lies a note she wrote to me and it says
F#m Bm F#m Bm
Though you can't live by the bullet, but you sure instead can die
G A Bm A
My love give up your guns and say good bye... good bye
F#m Bm F#m Bm
And the sheriff now is calling with a shotgun at my door
G // stop A // stop Bm Bm F#m Bm F#m
Son... give up your gun and face the law . . . . .
Bm F#m Bm F#m G A Bm
