C I donʼt look the way the average cowboy singer looks F Iʼll admit iʼve taken things i never should of took G You can read a different story in a lot of different books F But even then you wonʼt really know G C How it was a long time ago C Women have been my trouble since i found out they werenʼt men F In spite of that i stopped and took a wife now and then G They built their fences high but they couldnʼt hold me in F I was born with a fire down below G C And i learned to fly a long time ago C Donʼt ask me about the years i spent out in the rain F About the ones i spent in love or the ones i spent insane G Donʼt ask me who i gave my seat to on that plane F I think you already know G C I told you that a long time ago D Me and olʼ Willie,lordy weʼve been sold and bought G I guess you all heard about some kind of system that we fought A We ainʼt the only outlaws just the only ones they caught G They tried to run us off but Willieʼs slow A D I quit running a long time ago
