Couplets
AmGAm
I live out yonder where the snakes and scorpions run
AmG
got myself a little goldmine to bank on
DmAm
one day my heart sank when I saw Madame in town
AmGFAm
I knew her love would be the death of mine
L'amour pass, l'amour obGte.
Pourquoi perdre sa vie chercher l'or d'un coeur?
Je ne me noierai pas dans ce dsert mystique.
Je ferme mes comptes et je repars.
Refrain
c G
Do me a Favor while I'm hanging here
c Am
Take this gold and go and hide
AmGAm
ne gigote pas chri sur ta corde pendue
AmGFAm
cn't worry I'll be free in no time.
Jouer un couplet sans chanter
Couplet 3
AmGAm
She promised me she would be there when I'd return
AmG
she didn't say she'd have a army there as well
DmAm
she whispered, "J'taime Baby," as she fired that gun at me.
AmGFAm
mais je n'ai plus de temps
Refrain
c G
I should've stayed way out yonder
c Am
better off with the scorpi-ons and snakes
AmGAm
Every act which has no heart will be found out in the end
AmGFAm
Yes I'm a little late this time,
AmGF Mim
cause her love would be the death of mine,
Am
mine, all mine
