(ver. 1)
Robert Earl Keen
[Intro]
         Am  C  G7  Em7    Am  C  Em7  Am


[Verse 1]
                  C                 G7             Em7
Ain't got time to shoot the breeze, got no time to blow
Am               C              Em7          Am
Excuse me mister if you please.......I gotta go
                        C                    G7              Em7
Born one mornin' on the day of the dead in a bombed out bungalow
   Am              C               Em7          Am
My momma kissed my cheek and said.......I gotta go


[Chorus 1]
F       C             G7          Am                   F              Em7          Am
I gotta go somewhere......I gotta go.....Waistin' time standin' here.......I gotta go


[Verse 2]
                  C         G7          Em7
They put me in an orphanage west of Tupelo
Am                C                  Em7          Am
I told 'em when I burnt that bridge.......I gotta go
             C         G7               Em7
Stole a car, got a gun robbed the Hidey-Ho
Am             C           Em7          Am
I left Memphis on the run.......I gotta go


[Chorus 2]
F       C             G7          Am                   F              Em7          Am
I gotta go somewhere......I gotta go.....Waistin' time standin' here.......I gotta go


[Bridge]
          Am  C  G7  Em7    Am  C  Em7  Am    F  C  G7  Am    Am  F  Em7  Am


[Verse 3]
               C            G7               Em7
Five card stud deuces wild, three kings in a row
  Am                  C                 Em7          Am
I turned that diamond deuce and smiled.......I gotta go
                      C             G7                Em7
They tracked me down, took my take, brother don't you know
  Am                     C             Em7          Am
I told 'em boys, there's some mistake.......I gotta go


[Chorus 3]
F       C             G7          Am                   F              Em7          Am
I gotta go somewhere......I gotta go.....Waistin' time standin' here.......I gotta go


[Verse 4]
              C                     G7                     Em7
Cold steel up against my head, they turned the lights down low
   Am              C            Em7          Am
In case you didn't hear I said.......I gotta go
               C               G7               Em7
These are your very last words say 'em nice and slow
Am               C                 Em7  Am
My last words on this planet were


[Chorus 4]
F       C             G7          Am                   F              Em7          Am
I gotta go somewhere......I gotta go.....Waistin' time standin' here.......I gotta go
F       C             G7          Am                   F              Em7          Am
I gotta go somewhere......I gotta go.....Waistin' time standin' here.......I gotta go
                                                                           [**FALSE ENDING**]
