E Asus2 E
I'm leaving this place behind
E Asus2 E
And I'm heading out on the road tonight
E Asus2 E
I'm off for the hinterlands
E Asus2 E
Way up North where the tall trees stand
E Asus2 E
Before I commence my ride
E Asus2 E
I'm asking Lily to be my bride
E Asus2 E
I know there's another man
E Asus2 E
But he ain't gonna delay my plan
B
I know she's gonna be my wife

Gonna fall in love I'm gonna live my life with her
E Asus2 E
E Asus2 E

C#m
Ain't afraid of him cause I'm a fool for love
E Asus2 E
I've come forth to find Big Jim
E Asus2 E
Well here I am and I guess you're him
E Asus2 E
I see how you got your name
E Asus2 E
You're tall as hell and broad as a train
E Asus2 E
They say you a hard-born man
E Asus2 E
And the baddest guy in the whole wide land
E Asus2 E
Well I'm not afraid to fight
E Asus2 E
Let's step outside and I'll show you why
B
I'm humming like a revved up truck
C#m
Never mind the odds I'm gonna try my luck with her
E Asus2 E
E Asus2 E
B
Just tell me when you've had enough
C#m
I'm dangerous cause I'm a fool for love
E Asus2 E
You know you don't hit half bad
E Asus2 E
But I'm gonna lay you in the ground tonight
E Asus2 E
Just wait until I catch my breath
E Asus2 E
Gonna send you off to an early death
E Asus2 E
I lie in the drifting snow
E Asus2 E
Bleeding out as it covers me over
E Asus2 E
If spring comes before I'm found
E Asus2 E
Just throw my bones in a hole in the ground
E Asus2 E
I lost friends along my way
E Asus2 E
I knew I'd meet them eventually
E Asus2 E
No I'm not afraid to die
E Asus2 E
Just mad I left that Jim alive
B
I know I should've never looked back
C#m
But you ain't gonna win a woman's heart like that
E Asus2 E
E Asus2 E
B
I never should've called his bluff
C#m
I was born to lose cause I'm a fool for love
E Asus2 E
I stare into the endless sky
E Asus2 E
Let the sorry tale of my life go by
E Asus2 E
I drift into the great unknown
E Asus2 E
