Am              G
Whenever i walk into the street
      Am               G
And i see you standing there
          Am
With your back to the wall
         G
And your eyes on me
Am                G
I just stare and stare
Dm
And I feel like I'm living in a western movie

That's only just begun
    Am             G               Am
And I've got seven shells in my six gun
Am                        G
I'm wilder and bluer and yonderer
Am                   G
Now that you're with me
              Am              G
And there's a tin star on my chest
Am                     G
Where my heart used to be
    Dm
And even when it's high noon baby

My back's to the sun
    Am              G               Am
And I've got seven shells in my six gun
                   G                Am
And I've got seven shells in my six gun
C
You're trouble baby
          G
And There ain't no doubt
Am
The kind of trouble
      G 
I can live without
C
But I want to stay
G
By your side
Dm
As long as I'm alive

SOLO

Dm
The daylight's stronger
Dm
And the shadows are longer
Dm
Ever since I've found you
Dm
And I feel like I'm ten feet tall

And there's nothing I can't do
    Am                    G 
And don't worry baby when things get crazy
Am            G
Cause I won't turn and run
Am             G                Am
I've got seven shells in my six gun
                   G                Am
And I've got seven shells in my six gun
