Bounty Hunter


Artist - Keller Williams Song - Bounty Hunter Bm F#m "Good everning to you mister" the bounty hunter said Bm F#m "Ya dont know me but I know that there's a price on your head Bm F#m I know you're wanted dead or a live thats what the posters say Bm F#m Bm But I never shoot a man at night when he ain't had time to pray" Bm F#m So I'll give until sunrise tomorrow my friend Bm F#m Before I come and shoot you down and bring your body in Bm F#m I warn that I do my work quite well with a gun or knife Bm F#m Bm I've tracked down many a man I've taken many a life Chorus: F#m Bm Father do not mourn for me mother do not weep F#m Bm Whatever a man soweth that also shall he reep Bm F#m I had a long long sleepless night with the fear upon my breath Bm F#m Tryin to get ready with my mornin' duel with death Bm F#m I hid up in a hayloft out on the edge of town Bm F#m Bm And at sunrise the bounty hunter came to shoot me down Bm F#m I fired down at the bounty hunter sandin' out in the street Bm F#m He raised his gun and fired at round of shots back up at me Bm F#m He hit my chest and shoulder, my gun flew from my hand Bm F#m Bm I am standin up in this hayloft a wounded unarmed man Chorus Bm F#m The bounty Hunter he holds his fire and hollors up at me Bm F#m "Come out and take it like a man, I make it quick and clean" Bm F#m I now my time is runnin out and I got no time to stall Bm F#m Bm So reach a grab the pitch fork that hangin' on the wall Bm F#m My body arches as I stretch to face the risin' sun Bm F#m And I feel like a warrior's bow, freshly carved and strung Bm F#m I launch my body through the air with the pitch fork in my hand Bm F#m Bm Stabs the bounty hunter in the chest and pins him to the sand F#m Bm And now my muscle start to rust and my thoughts are growin' cold F#m Bm While Gabriel and Satan, shoot craps for my soul
