Am G
Whenever i walk into the street
Am G
And i see you standing there
Am
With your back to the wall
G
And your eyes on me
Am G
I just stare and stare
Dm
And I feel like I'm living in a western movie

That's only just begun
Am G Am
And I've got seven shells in my six gun
Am G
I'm wilder and bluer and yonderer
Am G
Now that you're with me
Am G
And there's a tin star on my chest
Am G
Where my heart used to be
Dm
And even when it's high noon baby
My back's to the sun
Am G Am
And I've got seven shells in my six gun
G Am
And I've got seven shells in my six gun
C
You're trouble baby
G
And There ain't no doubt
Am
The kind of trouble
G
I can live without
C
But I want to stay
G
By your side
Dm
As long as I'm alive
SOLO

Dm
The daylight's stronger
Dm
And the shadows are longer
Dm
Ever since I've found you
Dm
And I feel like I'm ten feet tall

And there's nothing I can't do
Am G
And don't worry baby when things get crazy
Am G
Cause I won't turn and run
Am G Am
I've got seven shells in my six gun
G Am
And I've got seven shells in my six gun
