G+G Cadd9Cadd9 G+G Cadd9Cadd9


     G+G            Cadd9Cadd9          G+G             Cadd9Cadd9
Yeah, I'd give this last wrinkled dollar in my pocket that I earned With a hammer and vice
      G+G          Cadd9Cadd9        G+G             Cadd9Cadd9
If I could undo some things and grow me some wings, fly out of this quarter tonight
    G+G            Cadd9Cadd9    G+G              Cadd9Cadd9
Yeah, tonight, every man with a TV is seeing a man with my clothes and my face
    G+G                  Cadd9Cadd9          G+G            Cadd9Cadd9
In the last thirty minutes I've gone from a person of interest to a full-blown manhunt underway
       G+G         Cadd9Cadd9
I did what I did, I have no regrets
          G+G           Cadd9Cadd9
When you cross the line, you get what you get

Chorus:
A minorAm         D MajorD      G+G        E minorEm
Tonight, a bleeding memory is tomorrow's guilty vein
A minorAm          D MajorD         G+G              E minorEm
Your auburn hair on a faraway sea wall, screams across the Pontchartrain
A minorAm       D MajorD        G+G       E minorEm
I'm haunted by headlights and a Crescent City breeze
C majorC         D MajorD      C majorC    D MajorD        G+G  Cadd9Cadd9
One wrong turn on Bourbon cuts like the knives of New Orleans


   G+G            Cadd9Cadd9          G+G           Cadd9Cadd9
I'm a ghost dodging bullets in all of these alleys just looking for my getaway keys
    G+G        Cadd9Cadd9           G+G                  Cadd9Cadd9
Wrapped up in the night, hiding out in plain sight but this grip's getting tight around me
         G+G       Cadd9Cadd9
Ain't no getting out that I can see
        G+G            Cadd9Cadd9
They'll take me dead, if they ever take me

Chorus 2:
A minorAm         D MajorD      G+G    G/F#  E minorEm
Tonight, a bleeding memory is tomorrow's guilty vein
A minorAm          D MajorD         G+G          G/F#  E minorEm
Your auburn hair on a faraway sea wall, screamin' 'cross the Pontchartrain
A minorAm       D MajorD        G+G    G/F# E minorEm
I'm haunted by headlights and a Crescent City breeze
C majorC         D MajorD      C majorC    D MajorD        G+G  Cadd9Cadd9
One wrong turn on Bourbon cuts like the knives of New Orleans

        G+G          Cadd9Cadd9
What I wouldn't do for just one more kiss
        G+G               Cadd9Cadd9
I'm all out of time, Honey, it's come down to this


Chorus 3:
A minorAm         D MajorD          G+G    G/F# E minorEm
I'm haunted by your hazel eyes and this Crescent City breeze
C majorC         D MajorD      C majorC    D MajorD        G+G
One wrong turn on Bourbon cuts like the knives of New Orleans

       G+G  Cadd9Cadd9
I did what I did
       G+G  Cadd9Cadd9
I did what I did
       G+G  Cadd9Cadd9
I did what I did
