I Gotta Go Chords

(ver. 1)
Robert Earl Keen
[Intro]
Am E Am E Am E Am
Am F C E Am F E Am

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

[Chorus]
F       C
I gotta go somewhere
G       Am
I gotta go
Am            F
Waistin' time standin' here
E       Am
I gotta go

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

[Chorus]
F       C
I gotta go somewhere
G       Am
I gotta go
Am            F
Waistin' time standin' here
E       Am
I gotta go

[Interlude] 
Am F C E Am F E Am X2    
F C E Am Am F E Am

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

[Chorus]
F       C
I gotta go somewhere
G       Am
I gotta go
Am            F
Waistin' time standin' here
E       Am
I gotta go

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

[Chorus]
F       C
I gotta go somewhere
G       Am
I gotta go
Am            F
Waistin' time standin' here
E       Am
I gotta go
F       C
I gotta go somewhere
G       Am
I gotta go
Am            F
Waistin' time standin' here
E       Am
I gotta go
