Capo 2


G                       C            D       G
Judy, I feel weary now, older than a man of 33
    G                                C            D               G
The gates of Hell just opened, after 20 years the warden says I'm free
  D                             C                   D                   G
Revenge was all I wanted when I killed the man that took your life that day
     G                           C                   D                   G
I've had my satisfaction but the price was more than love should have to pay


Chorus:
     D                                                  
Lord knows you weren't no lady
        C             D                G
And the witnesses all swore you was to blame
        D
And the way you teased the menfolk
    C                           G              D
The jury all agreed you knew no shame, knew no shame


Well I'm glad that you can't see me now
You'd probably say I do not look my best
Those lawyers took my money
And that Louisiana road gang took the rest


Bridge:
    D                         C               D            G
And Judy I can't even conjure up your picture in my mind today
G                                C             D           G
Lately I've been thinkin' what a fool I was to love you anyway


Well it all seems kind of useless
As I place these flowers on your grave today
I don't know what I'm doing here
I've forgotten all the things I came to say
