He cracks a wicked smile, had his foot pressed to the floor
D Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â C Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â G
  Flyin' down country roads that he's been down before

The first time we had seen his face was back in '84

He walked right into old O'Hares, he robbed that liquor store
D Â Â Â Â Â Â C Â Â Â Â Â G Â Â Â A
The sheriff tried to catch him but the man he got away
Bm      A        G         D C G (2x)
And he didn't show his face in town again until today
Chorus:
   Em                      D
He Didn't come for justice, didn't come to make amends
Em                         D
Doesn't ask forgiveness, he's not looking to make friends
Em               D     A      G
Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin

Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again

D Â Â Â Â Â Â C Â Â Â Â Â G Â Â Â A
And though he stole a lot of money, it's not enough for bail

And there are two blue lights behind him now, the sheriff's on his trail
Chorus:
   Em                      D
He Didn't come for justice, didn't come to make amends
Em                         D
Doesn't ask forgiveness, he's not looking to make friends
Em                  D     A      G
Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin

Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again

Since the day that he was born he spent his whole live livin' free
D Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â C Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â G
With nothing but the loosest ties to friends and family
D Â Â Â Â Â Â C Â Â Â Â Â G Â Â Â A
No punishment will make him care about the things he's done

And if he lives another 20 years he'll live 'em on the run

   Em                      D
He Didn't come for justice, didn't come to make amends

Em                   D     A      G
Just that he was passing through with money wearin' thin
        A                D    C G
Now he's travelin' down the Bolton Stretch again
