"Looks Like I Killed Again"
E
I shot a man this morning
Thought it was a dream
B7
But when I woke up
E
Gun in my hand
Now the law is surely after me
But I don't know what I've done
B7 E
So I better run to the promised land
Well, I grabbed a knife and held it tight
A
I stabbed straight through my heart
E
But I didn't die. Lord, I wonder why
B7 E B7 E
Musta been that evil dope.
I've been snortin' cocaine so god damn long
And the needle ain't a stranger to my right arm
Peyote it only makes me smile
Whiskey, make me love a w***e a good long while
A
I can't see the world through sober eyes
Without beggin' lord, "Please let me die."
E
That ol' marijuana opened a gate a mile wide,
D# E
Now it looks like I killed again.
I was headed for the border
But the law man knew I'd come
B7
So i pulled my gun
E
I shot him down
Then I shot his horse and I stole his clothes
And a picture of his wife
B7
And I walked right on
E
Down to Mexico
Then suddenly, I realized,
A
"Lord, what have I done?"
E
Price on my head, I'm wanted dead
B7 E B7 E
Because I killed again
But I've been snortin' cocaine all damn day long
And the needle's just a-stuck in my right arm
One way to end this misery
I Could pray to the devil
"Come take me"
A
But I ain't gonna stand around and wait,
I'm gonna reach right out and grab my fate
E
I'll take my gunpowder
Cut me a line half a mile wide and snort it
B7 E B7 E
Now I ain't gonna kill again
