Intro: G Cadd9 G Cadd9 


          G                       Cadd9                    G                          Cadd9 
Yeah, I'd give this last wrinkled dollar in my pocket that I earned With a hammer and vice 
           G                    Cadd9               G                         Cadd9 
If I could undo some things and grow me some wings, fly out of this quarter tonight 
        G                       Cadd9        G                            Cadd9 
Yeah, tonight, every man with a TV is seeing a man with my clothes and my face 
       G                                    Cadd9                   G                       Cadd9 
In the last thirty minutes I've gone from a person of interest to a full-blown manhunt underway 
             G                 Cadd9 
I did what I did, I have no regrets 
                   G                      Cadd9 
When you cross the line, you get what you get 

 
Am                  D           G               Em 
Tonight, a bleeding memory is tomorrow's guilty vein 
Am                    D                 G                           Em 
Your auburn hair on a faraway sea wall, screams across the Pontchartrain 
Am             D                G             Em 
I'm haunted by headlights and a Crescent City breeze 
C                 D            C        D               G    Cadd9 
One wrong turn on Bourbon cuts like the knives of New Orleans 


      G                        Cadd9                    G                      Cadd9 
I'm a ghost dodging bullets in all of these alleys just looking for my getaway keys 
        G                Cadd9                     G                                    Cadd9  
Wrapped up in the night, hiding out in plain sight but this grip's getting tight around me 
                 G              Cadd9 
Ain't no getting out that I can see 
                G                       Cadd9 
They'll take me dead, if they ever take me 

 
Am                  D           G        G/F#   Em 
Tonight, a bleeding memory is tomorrow's guilty vein 
Am                    D                 G                    G/F#    Em 
Your auburn hair on a faraway sea wall, screamin' 'cross the Pontchartrain 
Am             D                G        G/F# Em 
I'm haunted by headlights and a Crescent City breeze 
C                 D            C        D               G    Cadd9 
One wrong turn on Bourbon cuts like the knives of New Orleans 

                G                    Cadd9                  
What I wouldn't do for just one more kiss 
               G                              Cadd9 
I'm all out of time, Honey, it's come down to this 

 
Am                  D                   G        G/F#  Em  
I'm haunted by your hazel eyes and this Crescent City  breeze 
C                 D            C        D               G  
One wrong turn on Bourbon cuts like the knives of New Orleans 

             G   Cadd9 
I did what I did 
             G   Cadd9 
I did what I did 
             G   Cadd9 
I did what I did
