[VERSE 1]
Well I [Em]turned and shut my eyes

As you let the gravel fly
When I [Em]looked up y[D]ou had cleared the dr[Em]iveway
You and y[Em]our big cloud of dust

All your chrome and all your rust
[G]Beggin' to lay [D]scattered on the hi[Em]ghway


[VERSE 2]
Well I [Em]have not forgotten when we may as well be kin
Raising [Em]hell from h[D]ere to Bryan [Em]County
Wishing [Em]I could let you in

Give you shelter from the wind
[G]But that hurricane [D]ain't coming down [Em]around me


[CHORUS]
Oh well [G]you can curse your [D]fiddle till it [Am]breaks down at the bi[Em]nding
[G]Curse your locom[D]otive off the ra[Em]il
And all that [G]trouble you've been [D]looking for is e[Am]asy in the fin[Em]ding
Well the de[Em]vil's into fin[D]e detai[Em]l

[VERSE 3]
Well I [Em]nearly took your lead

With your pistol and your speed
Shoot to [Em]kill and [D]plan to be f[Em]orgiven
But in [Em]between the mill

And whatever deer I kill
[G]Truth be told I [D]barely make a li[Em]ving


[CHORUS]
Oh well [G]you can curse your [D]fiddle till it [Am]breaks down at the bi[Em]nding
[G]Curse your locom[D]otive off the ra[Em]il
And all that [G]trouble you've been [D]looking for is e[Am]asy in the fin[Em]ding
Well the de[Em]vil's into fin[D]e detai[Em]l

[BRIDGE]
And [G]you're somew[E]here in the Wi[Am]nding St[G]air
[G]Thinking you still got a trick or [Em]two
And you're [Am]planning out your f[G]ight in the lan[D]tern lig[Em]ht
But I[Am] don't see this going well for yo[Em]u
No I [Am]don't see this going well for you[Em]

[INSTRUMENTAL]

[VERSE 4]
Well the [Em]sheriff came last night

Is everything alright?
Ask for [Em]any help that[D] I can gi[Em]ve
No we [Em]had a falling out

Well then what's this all about
[G]They said the man who's [D]shot is gonna li[Em]ve


[CHORUS]
Oh well [G]you can curse your [D]fiddle till it [Am]breaks down at the bi[Em]nding
[G]Curse your locom[D]otive off the ra[Em]il
And all that [G]trouble you've been [D]looking for is e[Am]asy in the fin[Em]ding
Well the de[Em]vil's into fin[D]e detai[Em]l
Well the de[Em]vil's into fin[D]e detai[Em]l
