1]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nMe and my buddy got us a wild hair[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd figured we wanted to go somewhere[/tab]\r\n[tab]      [ch]E[/ch]                              [ch]A[/ch]\r\nSo we loaded up in my ragtop Chevrolet[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nWe had a little bit of money[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd a whole lot of show[/tab]\r\n[tab]          [ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd with Hank Jr. blaring on the radio[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]E[/ch]\r\nWe got us a tank full of gas[/tab]\r\n[tab]                    [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd we was on our way[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 2]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nWe figured we'd go down to New Orleans[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]D[/ch]\r\nWe were barrelling down old 17[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]E[/ch]\r\nWhen a man with a blinking red light[/tab]\r\n[tab]              [ch]A[/ch]\r\nWas on our tail[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nHe said you were doing 60 in a 45[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]D[/ch]\r\nBut I'm gonna let you go this time[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]E[/ch]\r\nBut if I catch you again[/tab]\r\n[tab]                                     [ch]A[/ch]\r\nI'm gonna slap you in the county jail[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse

Southbound and down with the wind[/tab]\r\n[tab]               [ch]A[/ch]\r\nBlowing in our faces[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nWe kept on rolling and pretty soon[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]D[/ch]\r\nThe radio was cooking out a Haggard tune[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]E[/ch]\r\nAnd we were pulling into Houston[/tab]\r\n[tab]                      [ch]A[/ch]\r\nChecking out all them places[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 4]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nI was feeling dry and I said I think[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]D[/ch]\r\nWe ought to stop and get ourselves a drink[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]E[/ch]                                   [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd old Jim said yeah 'cause we got time to kill[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nWe kept on rolling and I seen this spot[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd we pulled into the parking lot[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]E[/ch]                                   [ch]A[/ch]\r\nOf this place called the Cloud Nine Bar and Grill[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 5]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nWe walked through the door[/tab]\r\n\r\nAnd the place was jammed\r\n[tab]    [ch]D[/ch]\r\nThe lights were low they had a punk rock band[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]E[/ch]                                  [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd some orange haired feller singing about suicide[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]A[/ch]\r\nI said Jim this ain't our kind of place[/tab]\r\n[tab]             [ch]D[/ch]\r\nHe said well let's just have one round anyway[/tab]\r\n[tab]   [ch]E[/ch]                                          [ch]A[/ch]\r\nSo against my better judgement we walked on inside[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nWent up to the bar and we sat down[/tab]\r\n[tab]     [ch]D[/ch]\r\nThis feller walked up and said I'll buy this round[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]E[/ch]                                [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd he sat down on the barstool next to Jim[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 6]\r\n[tab][ch]A[/ch]\r\nHe looked like a girl but he talked like a guy[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]D[/ch]\r\nHe had lipstick on and mascara in his eyes[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]E[/ch]                                         [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd everybody in that place looked just about like him[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]A[/ch]\r\nI said Jim this ain't our kind of bar[/tab]\r\n[tab]           [ch]D[/ch]\r\nLet's just go on out and get back in the car[/tab]\r\n[tab]               [ch]E[/ch]\r\n'Cause there's gonna be trouble[/tab]\r\n[tab]                           [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAin't no sense in taking a chance[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]A[/ch]\r\nWe was getting up getting ready to leave[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]D[/ch]\r\nWhen somebody grabbed old Jim by the sleeve[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]E[/ch]                                        [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd this good looking girl was asking my buddy to dance[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 7]\r\n[tab]       [ch]A[/ch]\r\nI said Jim don't do it there's something missing[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]D[/ch]\r\nThere's fellers dancing and fellers kissing[/tab]\r\n[tab]          [ch]E[/ch]                                         [ch]A[/ch]\r\nThere's a feller in high heeled shoes wearing panty hose[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]A[/ch]\r\nHe said partner I just can't turn this down[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]D[/ch]\r\nYou just go over there and have one more round[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]E[/ch]\r\nAnd I'll dance with the lady[/tab]\r\n[tab]                          [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd we'll get on down the road[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 8]\r\n[tab]      [ch]A[/ch]\r\nSo he walked away and left me alone[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]D[/ch]\r\nBut this funny looking feller kept coming on[/tab]\r\n[tab]           [ch]E[/ch]                                        [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd he was making me mad with some of the things he said[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]A[/ch]\r\nThen he put his hand on my knee[/tab]\r\n[tab]          [ch]D[/ch]\r\nI said if you don't get your paw off me[/tab]\r\n[tab]          [ch]E[/ch]\r\nI'm gonna locate your nose around[/tab]\r\n[tab]                       [ch]A[/ch]\r\nThe other side of your head[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 9]\r\n[tab]          [ch]A[/ch]\r\nHe said I love it when you get that fire in your eye[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]D[/ch]\r\nI said well partner try this on for size[/tab]\r\n[tab]      [ch]E[/ch]                                      [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd I unloaded on him and he went out like a light[/tab]\r\n[tab]     [ch]A[/ch]\r\nEverybody in that place must have been his friend[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]D[/ch]\r\nThey all headed for me I said this is the end[/tab]\r\n[tab]          [ch]E[/ch]\r\nBut where I come from we don't give up[/tab]\r\n[tab]          [ch]A[/ch]\r\nWithout a fight[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 10]\r\n[tab]          [ch]A[/ch]\r\nThey were screaming and yelling and scratching and clawing[/tab]\r\n[tab]      [ch]D[/ch]\r\nI was punching and hitting and kicking and pawing[/tab]\r\n[tab]      [ch]E[/ch]                                             [ch]A[/ch]\r\nI was holding my own 'cause I've been in a scrap or two[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]A[/ch]\r\nOld Jim come running up out of the blue[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd that gal

[ch]A[/ch]\r\nI grabbed her by the hair it came off in my hand[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd that beautiful girl was just a beautiful man[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]E[/ch]                                        [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd old Jim just got sick right there on the floor[/tab]\r\n[tab]   [ch]A[/ch]\r\nHe dropped that dude like a shot from a gun[/tab]\r\n[tab]            [ch]D[/ch]\r\nSmeared his lipstick made his makeup run[/tab]\r\n[tab]    [ch]E[/ch]                                              [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd me and old Jim started fighting our way to the door[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 12]\r\n[tab]   [ch]A[/ch]\r\nWe lit out of there in that Chevrolet[/tab]\r\n[tab]  [ch]D[/ch]\r\nI put in on the floor and it stayed that way[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]E[/ch]\r\nWe were going down the highway[/tab]\r\n[tab]                          [ch]A[/ch]\r\nDoing about a hundred and ten[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]A[/ch]\r\nWe were headed for home and we was getting nearer[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]D[/ch]\r\nThen a red light came on the rear view mirror[/tab]\r\n[tab]         [ch]E[/ch]                                  [ch]A[/ch]\r\nAnd that same blame cop
