Capo on 2nd fret.
[Intro]
D - Dsus2 - D - Dsus4 - D (played over D chord below)
[Verse 1]
[D]Put the horses in the stable
Load the mules on the tr[A]ain[Asus4]
[D]Set your pistols on the table
[A]Leave the do[G]gs out in th[D]e rain
[D]Take the money that they gave you
Hide it in a mason j[A]ar[Asus4]
[D]Nobody now can save you
[A]It don't mat[G]ter where yo[D]u are
[Chorus]
[G]Turn your lamp down low
[A]Hear the four wins blow
[D]Bow your h[A]ead to p[Bm]ray[A][Asus4]
[G]It ain't what you planned
[Fm]You got [Bm]one last stand
[Em]Let the m[G]usic pl[D]ay
[Verse 2]
[D]Left for dead in southern Georgia
At the hands of hapless [A]Joh[Asus4]n
[D]With your baby waitin' for ya'
[A]You were h[G]ome before the d[D]awn
[D]You know your shakin' hands with Satan
When your mouth is goin'[A] dry[Asus4]
[D]When that law man back in Dayton
[A]Wouldn't lo[G]ok you in the e[D]ye
[Verse 3]
[D]He was nothin' but a grifter
And he came to play the [A]part[Asus4]
[D]Disguised as Luke the drifter
[A]Talk abou[G]t a cheatin' he[D]art
[D]And he sold you down the river
when he rode into your t[A]own[Asus4]
[D]Then that same old Indian giver
[A]Struck a m[G]atch and burned it d[D]own
[Verse 4]
[D]Now you're alone and barely breathing
Looking down from up abo[A]ve[Asus4]
[D]Needing something to believe in
[A]One lonely t[G]ruth and lov[D]e
[D]And the storm is slowly dying
At the breaking of the d[A]ay[Asus4]
[D]All the steel guitars are crying
[A]I'm rollin' d[G]own that lost highw[D]ay
[Chorus]
[G]It ain't like you planned
[Fm]You got [Bm]one last stand
[Em]Let the music[G] play [D]
