Merle Haggard - Huntsville guitar chord

Huntsville

By Merle Haggard

E A

That old white haired judge in Dallas

E B7 E

Didn't pay my story no mind

E A

They're takin' me down to Huntsville

E B7 E

I'm bringin' in a load of time

E E7

They caught me on a caper that I planned for days

A E

And proved everything I done

E A

I'm on my way to Huntsville

E B7 E

But I'm looking for a chance to run

My hands don't fit no choppin' pole

And cotton never was my beg

The man better keep both eyes on me

Or they're gonna lose old Hag

Hey there ain't so far to Mexico

That I can’t find my way

They're takin' me down to Huntsville

But I'm not gonna stay

Solo

They got me chain and leg irons

I guess they got a good excuse

They know I'm gonna run the first chance

I get cause they never gonna cut me loose

And I really don't care if they shoot me down

I'll never be free again

I've got two long life terms to do

Both runnin' end on end

Yeah it ain't so far to Mexico

That I can't find my way

They're takin' me down to Huntsville

But I'm not gonna stay
