Mean Mary - Fugitive

[Intro]

Em Bm Em G Em

(2x)

Em G

(4x)

[Verse 1]

Johnny loved his daddy's gun

He loved the farmer's daughter

She loved the sheriff's only son

But loved what Johnny bought her

She met the sheriff's joy and pride

They met in darkness, late

While Johnny met his darker side

And they all would meet their fate

[Chorus]

Running, but he's not a coward

Always hiding from his crime

A step away from being devoured

Just a victim of his time

He runs the night, his gun a blazing

He knows the sheriff won't forgive

Hell bent on hell raising

Em G

He'll live or die a fugitive

[Verse 2]

She wore a dress that Johnny bought

She wore it for the son

The son, he wore a yellow spot

G Em

And Johnny wore a gun

The sheriff's son turned pale with fright

He turned tail and fled

Johnny's gun turned out his light

G Em

And turned his yellow red

[Chorus]

Running, but he's not a coward

Always hiding from his crime

A step away from being devoured

Just a victim of his time

He runs the night, his gun a blazing

He knows the sheriff won't forgive

Hell bent on hell raising

He'll live or die a fugitive
