intro chords (2x) Take me across the water 'Cause I need some place to hide I done the rancher's daughter And I sure did hurt his pride Well, there's a Hundred miles of desert Lies between his hide and mine I don't need no food And no water, Lord 'Cos I'm running out of time Fightin', killin', wine and women Gonna put me to my grave Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin' Nothing left to save but my life (2x) Stood on a ridge And shunned religion Thinking the world was mine I made my break and a big mistake Stealin', when I Should've been buyin' End chords
