Gingerbread Man

VERSE 1
Am
Sometimes I think “I've gotta change or something's gonna give”

I hope I never have to pay for all the wrong I did
                                                        D
There are those who cut cherry trees and couldn't tell a lie
Am
I cut down a redwood and I blamed another guy

CHORUS
Am
In this town they want to see me dead

In this town they want to see me dead
                                D
In this town they want to see me dead
         Am
But they can't catch me because I'm gingerbread
VERSE 2
My hands are bloody but I never punched a clock
I've been prying jewels from a dead man's watch
My friends say I'm misunderstood
But I know they'd run me down if they could

BRIDGE
D
“He's no good” I've heard it said
Am
“Worthless useless poorly bred”
Am
that hits the nail right on the head
D
I've shed blood on sacred ground
  Am
I heard that sheriff's coming around
Am
Oh lord, I'm sinking down

VERSE 3
Outlaws never live so long I think my time is near
I regret all the pain I caused my mother dear
But if I had a bullet for all the folks I'd wronged
