Gingerbread Man

band : woodbox gang album : born with a tail gingerbread man Verse 1 Am sometimes i think i’ve gotta change or something’s gonna give i hope i never have to pay for all the wrong i did D there are those who cut cherry trees and couldn’t tell a lie Am G Am i cut down a redwood and i blamed another guy Chorus Am in this town they want to see me dead in this town they want to see me dead D in this town they want to see me dead Am G Am but they can’t catch me because i’m gingerbread Verse 2 my hands are bloody but i never punched a clock i’ve been prying jewels from a dead man’s watch my friends say i’m misunderstood but i know they’d run me down if they could Bridge D he’s no good i’ve heard it said Am worthless useless poorly bred D G Am that hits the nail right on the head D i’ve shed blood on sacred ground Am i heard that sheriff’s coming around D G Am oh lord , i’m sinking down Verse 3 outlaws never live so long i think my time is near i regret all the pain i caused my mother dear but if i had a bullet for all the folks i’d wronged i’d shoot them in the belly and watch them suffer on
