E
I'll be out of here for the break of dawn, 
G
I'll hit the highway, smoke a big cigar, 
D                                  E
got to stop and bury the cash, and get some more 

E
There's only one thing on my mind, that's 
G 
making it across that ol' state line, Without
D
a hail of avenging bullets, 
E
waiting there for me

E               G                 D  
And I'm already gone, I've left a path of pure destruction,

Already gone, my life will soon be through,
