Or a gringo like me [Verse 2] Be the first one to fire Every man is a liar There’s just one kind of man Who tells the truth That’s a dead man... Or a gringo like me [Bridge] Don’t be fool for smile or kiss Or your bullet might miss Keep your eye on your goal There’s just one rule That can save you your life It’s a hand on your knife And the Devil in your soul [Verse 3] Keep your hand on your gun Don’t you trust anyone There’s just one kind of man That you can trust That’s a dead man... Or a gringo like me (Riff 1) [Verse 4] (key change up half step; as before faster strummers play transitions between and chords) Keep your hand on your gun Don’t you trust anyone There’s just one kind of man That you can trust That’s a dead man... Or a gringo like me Or a gringo like me... Or a gringo like me... ...like me... | / slide up
