THIS SIDE OF THE LAW
Intro:
D-------------------------------------------0-1-2-1-2-1-2-1-------------------------|
A-------0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--4-------------------4--2-1-2---------------|
E-0-2-4---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0----------------------------------------------|

A                        E  A 
On this side of the law, On that side of the law,
D      A      D      A      D      A       D                  A
Who is right? Who is wrong? Who is for and who’s against the law?
    A      E       A      D            A
You see, I didn't really mean you no harm,
    A                                B7
But I simply couldn't make it on the farm.
     E              A
When the land won't give a lot You gotta do with what you got.
    B7                           E
And all I got's the muscle in my arm;  
        A             D              A
Well, I wouldn't ever hurt my fellow man.
            A                               B7
And Mister seems to me that you could under stand.
    D              A                    B7               A
I'm just tryin' to help my self without hurtin' somebody else.
      B7             E              A
And a man has got to do the best he can.
E   A                    E   A
On this side of the law, On that side of the law,
D      A      D      A       D      A       D                 A
Who is right? Who is wrong?  Who is for and who's against the law?

A                      D             A
Well, I didn't mean to let my fam'ly down,
    E          A                  B7
And I'm not giving you the run a round.
    A                                D            A
I'd much rather be dead than have to beg my daily bread.
       B7                             E
And to pay my way no matter where I'm bound;  
        A             D                A
Well, I didn't really think that I did wrong.
        A                          B7
Just as long I stayed here where I belong.
  D         A                         D         A
I did the only thing I could, Same as anybody would.
    B7           E             A
Yes I was simply trying to get along.
E   A                    E  A   
On this side of the law, On that side of the law,
D      A      D      A       D      A       D                 A
Who is right? Who is wrong?  Who is for and who's against the law?
