Intro: B

Verse:

B                                 EI met a pretty girl the next town over
                               F#Running like a river, thin and long
BOther than her dress
           EShe looked mighty well depressed
     B          F#                   BSo I asked this little lady what was wrong

B                                          EShe said, "All my life I've tried to be an outlaw
     B                                    F#I've tried to spit and chew and steal and rob
      BBut I ain't no good at thieven'
     ESo I might as well be leaven
  B                 F#       BI think I'm off and go get a job"

B                                    EI told the pretty girl, "Don't be so foolish
      B                              F#Don't be so quick to leave a life of crime
B                See I'll be quick to call it
        EYou can practice on my wallet
    B                  F#                  BAnd that way if you're caught you won't do time"


Chorus:

F#Just rob me!
BJust rob me!
B                                       F#A pretty face like yours don't come for free
BIf I can call you honey
          EWell then you can take my money
   B                F#So darlin keep your gun
BAnd just rob me

Verse 2:

B                                 EI see the girl again a few months later
   B                          F#To see her with her gun was a relief
        BI said, "Honey you've got attributes
     ELike lace and lips and high heeled boots
    B                F#           BBut dearie your just no good as a thief"

B                                          EShe said, "Mister how do you know that I'm failin'
  B                              F#I might have robbed twenty banks today"
  BI looked into her eyes
           EAnd said, "Miss, I'd be surprised,
       B                   F#            BYou're pointing that there gun the wrong way.

-Repeat Chorus-


Bridge:
F#                      BMaybe every woman is an outlaw
    F#                                    BI'm pretty sure they're pretty thieves in black
        F#                        F#They'll make you scream like smoke
                           F#And then they rob you broke
                         F#           F#   F#But I suppose don't mind being robbed like that


Verse 3:

B                                  ESo my pretty thief and I started a family
        B                      F#Yeah my outlaw's been given me inlaws
    BShe kept her thievin art
        E        Sure as rain she stole my heart
        B                   F#     BBut she tells me it's for a worthy cause

-Repeat Chorus-
