[Verse 1]
[E]I made a daring e[F]scape
[E]In the guise of [F]a nun[E][F][E][F]
[E]It took them most [F]of the [E]day
To realize [F]I was [E]gone[F][E][F]
[E]I crossed the forest[F] and [E]fields of wheat[F]
[E]A farmer's daughter [F]gave me [E]something to eat[F]
[E]I stole [F]a [E]paper just [F]to s[E]ee[F]
A [E]picture of me
[Chorus 1]
I'm a desperate [E]man[F][E]
I gotta [F]keep on [E]running[F][E]
I gotta [F]do what I [E]can[F][E][F]
To [E]get back to you[F][E][F]
[Verse 2]
[E]I made the over[F]night [E]ferry
By the skin of[F] my [E]teeth[F][E][F]
[E]I fell asleep be[F]tween the [E]truckers
Sprawled across[F] the [E]seats[F][E][F]
[E]I see your face [F]every[E]where I go[F]
[E]In every cafe[F], w[E]atering hole[E][F]
[E]What is th[F]e h[E]old you've got [F]on [E]me [F]
[E]Baby?
[Chorus 2]
I'm a desperate [E]man[F][E]
