If The Law Dont Want You Chords & Lyrics - Norah Jones

[INSTRUMENTAL]
C x 8 bars

I [D5]love to see them straw dogs 'round my [C]door
Come [D5]sneaking 'round my skirt tail looking for [C]more
If [G]you ain't running from the past, [D5]you ain't making my heart beat fast
[Bb]You ain't chugging your paycheck, [G]you ain't hugging on my neck

Well, [D5]I've been looking for trouble from the [C]git
Them [D5]cowboys back where I come from won't [C]quit
[G]Cutting up tires on an oyster shell, [D5]siren screaming and he's running like hell
[Bb]Momma's on the front porch staring him down, [G]ladies at the beauty shop coming unwound

[CHORUS]
If the [C]law don't want you, [G]neither do [C]I
I ain't got no time to [G]waste my shine on a [D5]puppet with a clip-on [F]tie
If the law [C]don't want you, [G]neither do [C]I [C] [Bb] [Bb] [C] [C]

[BRIDGE]
I [Bb]hired that boy to cut my grass, [C]nailed down a shingle but it couldn't get past
[Bb]Staring at the bottom of his low-slung pants, [G]says he's gonna take me to the big buck dance
If the [C]law don't want you, [G]neither do [C]I

[INSTRUMENTAL]
[D5] [D5] [Bb] [Bb] [G] [G] [G] [C]

I [D5]used to run wild down in Mexi- [C]co
[D5]Hair jacked up and necklines plunging [C]low
Some [G]snake hip shirt rip giving me lip, [D5]rifling my purse and stealing my tips
There's [Bb]something 'bout a man can affect that lean, [G]keeping his hat all yanked down mean

If the [C]law don't want you, [G]neither do [C]I
Play born to lose and you [G]light my fuse, I'm a [Dm]sucker for a bald-faced [F]lie
If the [C]law don't want you, [G]neither do [C]I [Bm] [Am]
If the [C]law don't want you, [G]neither do [C/Bb]I

[OUTRO]
