Waylon Jennings

W ^D hen i left Tulsa ^G ,Jamie was an innocent young l ^D ady
God only knows why she g ^G ave herself to a g ^D uy like you
She called me crying ^G ,said she was going to have yo ^D ur baby
But you just turned your b ^G ack on her ^C/G like all cowards do
Verse 2:
^A I swore i'd get you for what you're p ^D utting her through
And the only reason ^G i ain't got you
Is Jamie cried ^A and begged me not to
She still loves you for some r ^D eason
Chorus:
D ^D on't let the s ^G un set on you in T ^D ulsa
Don't let the s ^G un set on you in T ^D ulsa
If the sun goes d ^G own on you
I ^D f you're still here you're g ^G oing down to
D ^D on't let the s ^G un set on you in T ^D ulsa
Verse 3: (A tone higher)
J ^E amie's the only thing ^A i ever really c ^E ared for
She don't deserve ^A this kind of sh ^E ame
She's carrying a child ^A that you're to bl ^E ame for
You just laughed and said there ain't no w ^D ay he's gonna get your name
Verse 4: (A tone higher)
^B I swore i'd get you for what you're p ^E utting her through
And the only reason ^A i ain't got you
Is Jamie cried ^B and begged me not to
But i ain't through with you y ^E et
Chorus bis: (A tone higher)
D ^E on't let the s ^A un set on you in T ^E ulsa
Don't let the s ^A un set on you in T ^E ulsa
Better not let the s ^A un set on you in T ^E ulsa
