Looking Back Now Maggie Rose
Capo on first!
[C]Looking back now, I [G]probably should've let him [Am-G-F]run
He [Am]smelled like gin with a hint of her
[C]Up 'til then I wasn't sure
But he[G] swaggered by and said "The boys said to tell you [D]hey"
And I was [Am]kicked back in his easy chair
[C]Holding a fifth tapping the barrel
Of a fresh [G]cleaned steel blue polished up .[D]38
[F]And I was kind of hoping he'd at least look scared
But all he said was "Okay, she was good and you don't dare"
[C]Looking back now I [G]probably should've let [Am]him [F]run
[C]Paybacks are [G]hell where I come [Am]fro[F]m
And any [C]fool should now
You don't [G]look a woman in the [Am]eye and smile
When [F]she knows what you've [D]done
And she's [F]holding whiskey and a gun
Well the [Am]sun shines gray in the prison yard
[C]Life to go was going hard
When the w[G]arden started getting sweet on [D]me
And he [Am]drug me to his room one night
And [C]poured me some 'skey gave me a light
And [G]I smoked slow and waited 'til he was [D]done
And [F]I thought that was that 'til he got rough and I fought back
And when I grabbed his pistol he laughed and said
"Girl you ain't got the guts"
[C]Looking back now I [G]probably should've let [Am]him [F]run
[C]Paybacks are [G]hell where I come [Am]fro[F]m
And any [C]fool should now
You don't [G]look a woman in the [Am]eye and smile
When [F]she knows what you've [D]done
And she's [F]holding whiskey and a gun
They're [Am]strapping me down and I'm scared to die
Now I [C]ain't the kind of girl to cry
But I [G]find myself begging God for [D]mercy
My [Am]hands are cold as I start to slip
[C]Sodium theopentol drips
The [G]room goes black and I wonder if [D]He heard me
[C]Looking back now I [G]probably should've let [Am]him [F]run
[C]I bet paybacks are [G]hell where I come [Am]fro[F]m
And any [C]fool should now
You don't [G]look a woman in the [Am]eye and smile
When [F]she knows what you've [D]done
And she's [F]holding whiskey and a gun
Whiskey and a g[C]un[G] [Am] [F]
Whiskey and a g[C]un[G] [Am] [F]
Whiskey and a g[C]un[G] [Am] [F]
