^F Remember ^CGenie, ^Gfrom the ca-^Dmsino? ^F She's still a-^Cwaiting, in that ^Gbig brass bed. ^F The boys from ^Cyour gang, ^Gare knocking ^Dmwhisky back, ^F 'Till they get ^Cout of hand and ^Gwish they were dead.

^Am Where,^G/A ^Dm7 lies your ^Amheart?^G/A ^Dm7 ^Am It's not ^G/Athere in the ^Dm7buckskin baby. ^Am It's not ^G/Athere in the ^Dm7gin, That makes you ^Amlaugh ^G/Along and ^Dm7loud.

You're a ^Amcoward, ^G/AJames;^Dm7 ^Am You're ^G/Arunning a-^Dm7way from humanity. ^Am You're ^G/Arunning ^Dm7out on reality. ^E7 It won't be funny, when they rat-a-tat-tat you down.
