Gm             Eb     Bb         F
I'm for law and order, the way that it should be.
Gm                Eb                  Bb                 F
This song's about the night they spent protecting you from me.
Gm             Eb         Bb            F
Someone called us outlaws in some old magazine
Gm            Eb                 Bb                F
New York sent a posse down like I ain't never seen.

[Verse]
Gm                    Eb        Bb                 F
Don't you think this outlaw shit has gotten out of hand?
Gm               Eb            Bb                  F
What started out to be a joke, the law don't understand.
Gm                           Eb           Bb              F
Was it singing through my nose that got me busted by the man?
Gm             Eb              Bb                   F
This ain't it, this outlaw shit has gotten out of hand,
             Eb Bb F
Out of hand.

[Verse]
Gm                         Eb    Bb                  F
We were wrapped up in the music, that's why we never saw,
Gm               Eb               Bb                         F
The cars pull up, the boys get out and the room fill up with law.
Gm                             Eb           Bb                F
They came pounding through the back door in the middle of my song.
Gm               Eb        Bb                          F
They got me for possession of something that was long gone.
Gm                    Eb        Bb                 F
Don't you think this outlaw shit has gotten out of hand?
Gm               Eb            Bb                  F
What started out to be a joke, the law don't understand.
Gm                           Eb           Bb              F
Was it singing through my nose that got me busted by the man?
Gm             Eb              Bb                   F
This ain't it, this outlaw shit has gotten out of hand,
             Eb Bb F
Out of hand.
