Bullets In The Gun

Bullets In The Gun - Toby Keith https://youtu.be/DkS5H3Of4-E Standard Tuning - No Capo [Intro] [Verse] They used to call me lightning I was always quick to strike Had everything I own In the saddles on my back I had a reputation For never staying very long Just like a wild and restless drifter Like a cowboy in a song [Verse] I met a darkhaired beauty Where they laid the whiskey down In southern Arizona In a little border town She had to dance for money In that dusty old saloon I dropped a dollar in the jukebox Played that girl a tune yeah [Chorus] Never see it coming It just hits you by surprise It’s that cold place in your soul That fire in her eye Makes you come together Like wild horses when they run Now the cards are on the table And the bullets in the gun [Verse] She was sittin’ on my lap We still had shots to kill When a man pulled up who owned the bar In a Cadillac DeVille He grabbed her by her raven hair And threw her in the floor Said no free rides for the cowboys That ain’t what I pay you for no [Verse] She jumped up and grabbed my pistol Stuck it in the fat man’s back Said open up the safe Put your money in the sack Tied his hands behind him Put a blindfold on his eyes Said if you’re dumb enough to chase us Man you’re dumb enough to die [Chorus] Never see it coming It just hits you by surprise It’s that cold place in your soul That fire in her eye Makes you come together Like wild horses when they run Now the cards are on the table And the bullets in the gun [Instrumental Break] [Verse] We rode across the border Down into Mexico When you’re running from the law Ain’t that where everybody goes We came to a town With a name I couldn’t spell She gave me what I came for In that Mexican motel [Verse] I woke up to sirens And the sound of running feet There were 50 federales Locked and loaded in the street She grabbed my 44 I grabbed the money in the sack I kissed her for the last time And we headed out the back [Instrumental Break] [Verse] Every gun was on us And every heartbeat pounding The only one thing left to do When they got you all surrounded She fired that old pistol But we didn’t stand a prayer Money hit the gravel Bullets filled the air... [Chorus] Never see it coming It just hits you by surprise It’s that cold place in your soul That fire in her eye Makes you come together Like wild horses when they run Now the cards are on the table And the bullets in the gun [Outro] Bullets in the gun Bullets in the gun Bullets in the gun...
