[Verse]
Gm Eb Bb F
I'm for law and order, the way that it should be.
Gm Eb Bb F
This song's about the night they spent protecting you from me.
Gm Eb Bb F
Someone called us outlaws in some old magazine
Gm Eb Bb F
New York sent a posse down like I ain't never seen.
[Verse]
Gm Eb Bb F
Don't you think this outlaw shit has gotten out of hand?
Gm Eb Bb F
What started out to be a joke, the law don't understand.
Gm Eb Bb F
Was it singing through my nose that got me busted by the man?
Gm Eb Bb F
This ain't it, this outlaw shit has gotten out of hand,
Eb Bb F
Out of hand.
[Verse]
Gm Eb Bb F
We were wrapped up in the music, that's why we never saw,
Gm Eb Bb F
The cars pull up, the boys get out and the room fill up with law.
Gm Eb Bb F
They came pounding through the back door in the middle of my song.
Gm Eb Bb F
They got me for possession of something that was long gone.
Gm Eb Bb F
Don't you think this outlaw shit has gotten out of hand?
Gm Eb Bb F
What started out to be a joke, the law don't understand.
Gm Eb Bb F
Was it singing through my nose that got me busted by the man?
Gm Eb Bb F
This ain't it, this outlaw shit has gotten out of hand,
Eb Bb F
Out of hand.
[Outro] (x2)
