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