[Intro] EmEmEmEm AmAm
[Verse] AmGAm I live out yonder where the snakes and scorpions run AmGG Got myself a little goldmine to bank on DmDmAmAm But one day my heart sank when i saw madame in town AmGFAm I knew her love would be the death of mine
[Verse] AmGAm L'amour passé, l'amour obsolète AmAmG Pourquoi perdre sa vie à chercher l'or d'un coeur? DmDmAmAm Je ne me noierai pas dans ce désert mystique AmGFAmAm Je ferme mes comptes et je repars
[Chorus] CCGG Do me a favor while i'm hanging here CCAmAm Take this gold and go and hide
[Verse] AmAmGAm Ne gigote pas, chéri, sur ta corde pendu AmGFAmAm Don't worry I'll be free in no time
[Solo] AmAmGAmAmAmGGDmDmAmAm AmGFAmAm
[Verse] AmAmGAm She promised me she would be there when i'd return AmGG She didn't say she'd have an army there as well DmDmAmAm She whispered, "j'taime baby"; as she fired that gun at me AmGFAmAm Mais je n'ai plus beaucoup de temps
[Chorus] CCG I should've stayed way out yonder CCAmAm Better off with the scorpions and snakes
[Verse] AmAmGAm Every act which has no heart will be found out in the end AmGFAmAm Guess i'm a little late this time AmGFEmEm Cause her love would be the death of mine EmEmAmAm Mine, all mine
