I Gotta Go
Robert Earl Keen

Capo 2

Am                            C
Ain't got time to shoot the breeze,
G                 Em
Got no time to blow,
Am                C 
Excuse me mister if you please, 
Em         Am
I gotta go
Am                               C
Born one morn on the day of the dead 
G                   Em
In a bombed out bungalow.
Am                             C
My momma kissed my cheek and said,
Em         Am
I gotta go


Chorus:
F                    C
I gotta go somewhere,
G        Am
I gotta go 
Am                     F                       
Wastin' time standing here
Em         Am
I gotta go


Am                     C
They put me in an orphanage 
G            Em
West of Tupelo 
Am                         C
I told em when I burnt that bridge,
Em        Am
I gotta go
Am                  C
Stole a car; got a gun 
G                 Em
Robbed the Hidey-Ho
Am                      C
I left Memphis on the run
Em        Am
I gotta go

Chorus:
F                  C
I gotta go somewhere,
G        Am
I gotta go  
Am                     F
Wastin' time standing here
Em        Am
I gotta go


Am                     C
Five card stud, deuces wild
G                  Em
Three kings in a row
Am                              C
I turned that diamond deuce and smiled
Em       Am
I gotta go       
Am                         C
They tracked my down and took my take
G                     Em
Brother don't you know
Am                         C
I told them boys there's some mistake 
Em          Am
I gotta go


Chorus
F                  C
I gotta go somewhere,
G         Am
I gotta go 
Am                   F
Wasting time standing here,
Em         Am
I gotta go

Am                        C
Cold Steel up against my head
G                         Em
They turned the lights down low
Am                          C
In case you didn't hear I said
Em     Am
I gotta go
Am                           C
These are your very last words, sir
G                  Em
Say em nice and slow,
Am                              C
My last words on this planet were...


Chorus x2
F                  C
I gotta go somewhere,
G     Am
I gotta go 
Am                   F
Wasting time standing here,
Em    Am
I gotta go
