Tonart: Bb major•
Verse 1
Let's scoot the beat.
Bb
F
Shoot. 1, 2, 3, 4.
Bb
F
Lay back in an old saloon
Eb
Dm
Cm
with a peso in my hand
F
Watching flies and children
of black -eyed girls
Eb
Bb
Cm
who giggle when I smile
F
There's a little boy who
Bb
wants to shine my feet
Eb
Dm
And it's three days' from Bakersfield
Cm
and I don't know why I came
F
Bb
I guess I came to keep from paying dues
Eb
Dm
So instead I grab a bottle
Cm
and a girl who's just 40
the Mexicali blues
Yeah
Bb
Is there anything a man
doesn't stand to lose
When the devil wants to
Cherish well your thoughts
and keep a tight grip on your booth
Cm
Cause thinkin' and drinkin' are
Dm
F
Bb
F
all I have today
Bb
F
She said her name was Billie Jean,
Eb
Dm
Cm
she was fresh in town
F
Bb
I didn't know her stage line ran from hell
F
She had raven hair, a ruffled dress,
Dm
Cm
It's made of gold,
Eb
Dm
She took me up into her room,
Bb
do anything you choose
Eb
Dm
Now I'm paying for those happy hours
Cm
I spent there in her arms
F
With a lifetime's worth of
the Mexicali blues
Bb
Yeah, is there anything
a man don't stand
When the devil wants to
Cherish well your thoughts
and keep tight grip on your boots
Cm
Cause thinkin' and drinkin'
Dm
F
Bb
are all I have today
F
Then a man rode into town
Eb
Dm
Eb
Cm
Some thought he was the law
F
Bb
Billie Jean was waiting when he came
F
She told me he would take her
Eb
Dm
Cm
if I didn't use my gun
F
Bb
I'd have no one but myself to blame
Eb
Dm
I walked down to those dusty streets,
Cm
blood was on my mind
F
I guess that stranger hadn't
Eb
Dm
Cause I shot first and killed him,
Cm
but he didn't even draw
F
And he made me trade the gallows
for the Mexicali blues
Bb
Is there anything a man
don't stand to lose
When he lets a woman
You just might find yourself out there
on a horseback in the dark
Cm
Just ridin' and runnin' across
