Intro: [riff x4]
Verse 1:
Am Am/F#
I have been awakened, by an urgent caller's ringing
F [riff x2]
But I really don't come to until I hear the speaker
Am Am/F#
It's a job for me to do, a name, address, a place where I can reach her
F Am
I'm to call her back as soon as I know the job is through
Bridge:
G F
And I know that there'll never be a heaven free
Dm
As I light up my lucky, get in my car
F G
Drive to the place I've been told that you are
Chorus 1:
Am Am/F#
And I, I shot you down copper, And it was my will
F Dsus2/F#
As I see the life leave from your eyes
E E7
I know that this is one time that you won't bring me in
Am Am/F#
And I, I shot you down copper, And it was my will
F Dsus2/F# E E7
And as you fall beneath my headlights, I straighten on my hat and disappear
I know I have just killed a man
Solo: [riff x4] - G - F - Dm - F - G
Chorus 2:
Am Am/F#
And I, I shot you down copper, And it was my will
F Dsus2/F#
As I see the life leave from your eyes
E E7
I know that this is one time that you won't bring me in
Am Am/F#
And I, I shot you down copper, And it was my will
F Dsus2/F# E E7
And as you fall beneath my headlights, I straighten on my hat and disappear
Outro:
Am Am/F#
They will never catch me, 'cause I love the job I do
F Am
It's just a shiver of my spine and a squeeze of the trigger
