This is the tale of

reckless love

Living a life of
             Db
crime on the run

A brush to a gun
               Gb
to paint these states green
F
  and red

Bbm
    Everybody freeze

Nobody move

Put the money in the bag
           Db
or we will shoot

Empty out the vault
              Gb           F       Ebm
and me and my doll will be on our way

                          Bbm
Our paper faces flood the streets
           Gb
and if the heat comes close enough to burn
           F         F/A
then we'll play with fire 'cause

Here we find our omnipotent outlaws
F
Fall behind the grind tonight
Bbm
Left unaware that the lone store owner
Db                F
Won't go down without a fight

Bbm
    Where we gonna go?

He's got us pinned

Baby I'm a little scared
              Db
Now don't you quit

He's sounded the alarm
           Gb     F       Ebm
I hear the sirens closing in
