       D                         Em

Wherever you might look tonight you might see this wanted man.

        D                  Em
I might be in Colorado, or Georgia by the sea,
A                                G.               D.
Working for some man who may not know who I might be
       D                         Em
If you ever see me coming and if you know who I am
          A                               G.              D.
Don't you breathe it to nobody 'cause you know I'm on the lamb.

Wanted man by Lucy Watson, wanted man by Jeannie Brown
       A                             G.               D.
Wanted man by Nellie Johnson, wanted man in this next town
     D                          Em
I've had all that I wanted of a lot of things I've had
      A                              G.                     D.
And a lot more than I needed of some things that turned out bad.

      D                                  Em
I got sidetracked in El Paso, stopped to get myself a map
         A                           G.         D.
Went the wrong way in Juarez with Juanita on my lap.
       D                                 Em
Then I went to sleep in Shreveport, woke up in Abilene
          A                               G.              D.
Wonderin' why the hell I'm wanted at some town half way between.

       D                          Em
Wanted man in Albuquerque, wanted man in Syracuse
       A                          G.           D.
Wanted man in Tallahassee, wanted man in Baton Rouge
        D                          Em
There's somebody set to grab me anywhere that I might be
        A                                      G.               D.
And wherever you might look tonight, you might get a glimpse of me
