Capo 1
G C G
Yeah well Jimmy's got a six pack, and a twelve gauge
D
Shooting cans & bottles off the fence
G Em D
Yesterday tomorrow seemed so hopeless...Today it seems like everything makes sense
C G
He's staring at the bead right down the barrel,
D G
I'm looking for a pen to write this down
C G
Working on a plan that means escaping
Em D
What people call the white trash side of town...
CHORUS
C G
Yeah we're gonna live like kings in Juarez
D G
Live like little gringo millionaires
C G
It doesn't really matter what the score is
Em D
A dollar goes a long long way down there
C G
I'm tired of feeling too big for my britches
D G
Tired of feeling too small for my dreams
Em C
We're either gonna die like dogs in Texas
Am D G
Or make it down to Juarez... and live like kings
G C G
Well we could rob the farmer's bank in Hondo
D
Tell me brother how hard could it be
G C G
Whoever put it that close to the highway
Em D
Never counted on the likes of me
G C
They're probably never gonna see us comin'
G D
We'll probably never have to fire a shot
C G
Probably never more set foot in Texas
Em D
Once we get across the parking lot...
REPEAT CHORUS
C G
We're gonna live in castles, by the water
D G
Or hell at least in cabins by the bar
C
We're gonna kiss the desert's lovely daughters
Em D
Underneath the heavens' silver stars
C G
Ain't even gonna worry that the money
D G
Might not last until we're both dead
Em C
You know you really ain't no kind of outlaw
Em D
Once you start to think that far ahead...
REPEAT CHORUS
