when on Am play bass notes E G A capoed 2
[Intro]
Am one strum
Papa said goodbye to the glass on the prison phone
Am one strum E7 one strum Am
Mama never cried, just said boy, you re a bad man s son
[Verse 1]
Under a new moon sky my headlights cut the night
on this dark road to nowhere
It s just a matter of time before I have to pay the price
for what I ve done back there
[Chorus]
I am bound for my fate i got a bad man s blood in my veins
[Verse 2]
I told the teller man to put the money in the bag
my hands were shaking scared
the shot took my by surprise I saw the fear in his eyes
I just left him lying there
[Chorus]
I am bound for my fate I ve got a bad man s blood in my veins
[Verse 3]
If I was a praying man I would pray for a friend
to help me through this long long night
they re coming to take me away in the morning come daybreak
I hang my head and sigh
[Chorus]
I am bound for my fate I ve got a bad man s blood in my veins
I am bound for my fate I ve got a bad man s blood in my veins
