It was a dirty town where they’d string a man up just to see his frown
A E F#m D
Oh, I smiled as the band started to play
A E F#m D
I was just traveling through from another life, a different toon
A E F#m D
Oh, Gambling hands and a scar across my face
A E F#m D
I knew you were right for me, with another man on the hill, you see,
A E F#m D
and your governour daddy was so happy
A E F#m D
But still you pick me out, you wrapped your hands around my own
A E F#m D
And then we danced for the first time that night
A E F#m D
Feet don’t fail me, this child might save me
A E F#m D
I’m on my knees tonight
A E F#m D
Feet don’t fail me, this child might save me
A E F#m D
I’m on my knees tonight
A E F#m D
Oh, we danced so slow and the crowd, it murmured as your affection showed
A E F#m D
and your man said, "Could I cut in?"
A E F#m D
You couldn’t keep your eyes off me as I slipped out the backdoor
A E F#m D
Oh, followed by three gentlemen up here
A E F#m D
Feet don’t fail me, this child might save me
A E F#m D
I’m on my knees tonight
A E F#m D
Feet don’t fail me, this child might save me
A E F#m D
I’m running for my life tonight
A F#m
Running, running, running, running, running for my life
A F#m
Running, running, running, running, running for my love [x2]
A E F#m D
Feet don’t fail me, this child might save me
A E F#m D
I’m running for my life tonight
A E F#m D
Feet don’t fail me, this child might save me
A E F#m D
I’m running for my life tonight
Whoohoo!
