Lirik Lagu Running Gun – Marty Robbins

[Verse 1]

D G7

I rode out of Kansas City, going south to Mexico A G7 D

I was running dodging danger, left the girl that I loved so G7

Far behind lay Kansas City and the past that I had earned A G7 D

Twenty notches on my six gun marked the lessons I had learned

[Chorus] G7 D

Many times I sold my fast gun for a place to lay my head G7 D A

Till the nights began to haunt me by the men that I left dead

[Verse 2] D G7

Couldn’t stand it any longer with the life that I’d begun A G7 D

So I said good-bye to Jeannie and became a running gun G7

I rode into Amarillo as the sun sank in the west A G7 D

My thoughts in Kansas City and the girl that I love best G7

As I smiled and kissed her gently and then turned away to go A G7 D

Said I’d send for her to meet me when I reached old Mexico

[Chorus]

G7 D

I had barely left the saddle and my foot just touched the ground G7 D A

When a cold voice from the shadows told me not to turn around

[Verse 3] D G7

Said he knew about my fast gun, knew the price paid by the law A G7 D

Challenged by a bounty hunter, so I turned around to draw D G7

I knew someday I’d meet him for his hand like lightning flashed A G7 D

My own gun stood in leather as his bullet tore it’s path G7

As my strength was slowly fading I could see him walk away A G7 D

And I knew that where I lie tonight he too must lie some day

[Chorus]

G7 D

Now the crowd is slowly gathering and my eyes are growing dim G7

And my thoughts return to Jeannie D A

and the home that we had planned D

Oh please tell her won’t you mister G7

that she’s still the only one A G7 D

But a woman’s love is wasted when she loves a running gun
