[Verse]
D#m C# D#m
I live out yonder where the snakes and scorpions run
D#m C# C#
Got myself a little goldmine to bank on
G#m G#m D#m D#m
But one day my heart sank when i saw madame in town
D#m C# B D#m
I knew her love would be the death of mine
[Verse]
D#m C# D#m
L'amour passé, l'amour obsolète
D#m D#m C#
Pourquoi perdre sa vie à chercher l'or d'un coeur?
G#m G#m D#m D#m
Je ne me noierai pas dans ce désert mystique
D#m C# B D#m D#m
Je ferme mes comptes et je repars
[Chorus]
F# F# C# C#
Do me a favor while i'm hanging here
F# F# D#m D#m
Take this gold and go and hide
[Verse]
D#m D#m C# D#m
Ne gigote pas, chéri, sur ta corde pendu
D#m C# B D#m D#m
Don't worry I'll be free in no time
[Solo]

[Verse]
D#m D#m C# D#m
She promised me she would be there when i'd return
D#m C# C#
She didn't say she'd have an army there as well
G#m G#m D#m D#m
She whispered, "j'taime baby"; as she fired that gun at me
D#m C# B D#m D#m
Mais je n'ai plus beaucoup de temps
[Chorus]
F# F# C#
I should've stayed way out yonder
F# F# D#m D#m
Better off with the scorpions and snakes
[Verse]
D#m D#m C# D#m
Every act which has no heart will be found out in the end
D#m C# B D#m D#m
Guess i'm a little late this time
D#m C# B A#m A#m
Cause her love would be the death of mine
A#m A#m D#m D#m
Mine, all mine
