Shifting Gears chords by Cooder Graw

Verse:

A
Sheriff drove out to the edge of the county

Kicked a man out and turned around and he
D                       A
Drove slowly back into town
            E                               A
Just don't hurt nobody, or you'll be going down
A
Earn respect quick with a gun in your pocket
A
Everybody shut up and you'd better watch it
D                                                A
If you're out doing things everyone knows ain't right
         E                                       A
Find yourself in the highway in the middle of the night

Chorus 1:

                   F#m  G            A
Find yourself down 152 East out of town
        F#m        G                A
You can scream and no one hears a sound
              Bm                        D                 E
Yea, and the sheriff and his boys know every road out of here
                           G            D                 A
And they'll kick you right out in the middle of shifting gears


Verse:

 A
Lived in the courthouse, kept an eye on things

Better stay quiet and you'd better not sing
D                                   A
Unless you can keep a tune in your head
           E                                      A
Just don't do nothing stupid or you might end up dead
  A
Leather gloves in the back of his pants
  A
Don’t backtalk or you're gonna dance
           D                        A
Around an 8-by-12 steel and cement cell
        E                                         A
And if you hurt a woman, you'll find yourself in Hell


Chorus 2:

            F#m  G          A
Hell's down 152 East out of town
         F#m       G                A
You can scream and no one hears a sound
              Bm                         D                E
Yea, and the sheriff and his boys know every road out of here
                           G            D                 A
And they'll kick you right out in the middle of shifting gears
                           G            D                 A
Yeah they'll kick you right out in the middle of shifting gears


Verse:

A
He'll see to it that your trip is short

Mind your manners and you ain't got to worry
 D                                                           A
It's a well-known secret the sheriff runs a tight town
            E                              A
Just don't hurt nobody or you'll be goin' down

Spoken part
A
Sheriff drove out to the edge of the county

Kicked a man out and he turned around and he
 D                                   A
Watched his mirror as he drove into town
            E                              A
Just don't hurt nobody or you'll be goin' down

Yea, and the sheriff and his boys know every road out of here
                           G           D                  A
And they'll kick you right out in the middle of shifting gears
