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