Cody Jinks: Fast Hand

Intro:  Bm D A E

Bm 	  	  	  	 D
I didn’t want to shoot that man, but he heard that I was fast
                A 	  	  	  	 E
You know that liquor gave him the courage that put him in the ground
Bm 	  	  	  D 	  	  	  	 
But nobody saw, I couldn’t claim no self defense
A 	  	  	  	      E
So I took off with the morning sun, running from my sins


Ended up in every town, where all the bad men go
They been running just like me, someone always knows
He’ll say aint you the man that shot that boy, and he’ll want his turn to dance
SO he’ll lie dying in some street that night, no he never had a chance

Chorus:
 E                   Bm 	                  A 	 
Never meant to be a bad man I just had a fast hand
 	  	 E 	  	 D                    A 	 
Going to be nothing in hell I haven’t lived through here
 	  	   Bm 	  	 A 	 
I’m just going to walk out and wish you all good night 
                2nd time   (yeah tonight I’ll save your life)
  	 E                        D …A                     Bm 	 
I never meant to be a bad man…              I just had a fast hand


I ended up in Ft. Worth, ‘cause no one knows me here
And time has a funny way of taking away the years
But I don’t mind the changes or the age that’s in my face
Cause there’s a piece of my soul in every man I killed and every God forsaken place


…Didn’t want to shoot that man but he heard… that I was fast…
