Intro
B F# A Em
Verse 1
Em
My first murder was an accident I never meant to do
B
I had been going for his wallet, wound up taking his life, too
C
I had him cornered in an alley with my gun against his face
Em
I said, "Hand over your money and I'll send you on your way"
B F# A Em
But he just had to play the hero and refused to cooperate
Verse 2
Em
The second time I killed a man, I did it for revenge
B
He had been flirting with my woman and I couldn't let that stand
C
So when he got up to leave the bar, I followed him out back
Em
Pinned him in between a brick wall and my stolen Cadillac
B F# A Em
Kept on inching that car forward, 'til I felt his rib cage crack
Verse 3
Em
Now, three and four were easier, but I'm really not sure why
B
I picked up a couple hitchhikers on route I-95
C
I don't claim to understand it, but I think I lost my head
Em
All that I remember is the way their clothes turned red
B F# A Em
When I came back to my senses, I had stabbed them both to death

Verse 4
Em
Now, by this time, I had become accustomed to the k**l
B
And I'm not proud about it, but I kinda like the thrill
C
To feel the heartbeat in the throat, the terror in the eyes
Em
The sorry choking noises as they beg you for their lives
B F# A Em
Oh, strangulation music, that was number five
Verse 5
Em
Six, I did for money, it was just another job
B
And seven, out of desperation, I had to k**l a cop
C
They caught up with me in Reno as I ran for the state line
Em
The hostages I'd taken, number eight and number nine
B F#m A Em
Now they've got me surrounded, but they won't get me alive
Outro
P.M. Em
So I'm holed up in this motel and I'm loading up my guns
Bm
Peering out the window, there's a thousand cops out front
Em B
They circle me like vultures, but I feel so far away
C
Everybody has to die, there is no escape
Em
The only thing that changes is how long you have to wait
C Em E
I'm not gonna spend my whole life behind metal bars
B Em
So get ready, I'm coming, let's see who's the fastest draw!
