Merle Haggard — I’m A Lonesome Fugitive

C                         F                G7  
Down every road there's always one more city 
     F                G7             C  
I'm on the run the highway is my home 
                   F                 G7  
I raised a lot of cane back in my younger days 
       F              G7                   C  
While Mama used to pray my crops would fail 
                  F                        G7  
Now I'm a hunted fugitive with just two ways 
    F                G7                C  
Outrun the law or spend my life in jail 
  
                    F                     G7  
I'd like to settle down but they won't let me 
   F                            G7  
 A  fugitive must be a rolling stone 
      C                    F               G7  
Down every road there's always one more city 
     F                G7            C  
I'm on the run the highway is my home 
  
                  F                  G7  
I'm lonely but I can't afford the luxury 
    F              G7             C  
Of having one I love to come along 
                    F                 G7  
She'd only slow me down and they'd catch up with me 
     F                G7             C  
For he who travels fastest goes alone 
tag: 
     F                G7            C  
I'm on the run the highway is my home
