E        G   A             E       A
Leaving now, all I have is all I own
E               G      A  E A
I'm hoping it’s all I need
E       G            A               E          A
Ran me down and the love was like a rolling stone
E         G          A
Only way out was to leave

Chorus:
E                   G
On the road but I'm on the run
    A                       E
It ain't no fun when you’re under the gun
E                       G                 A
We made a deal but the dealer won and I'm under
the gun
B            D    B    A  B          A   B
Calling the sun down, I'm under the gun now

My darkest hour, locked inside my lonely room
Counting the cracks on the wall
Pretty flowers, I still smell the sweet perfume
Then I make a mess of it all

Chorus

E           G            A               E
I drive the interstate, rode just like thunder shook
E                G           A
I’d get out from under if I could
B            D    B    A  B          A   B
Calling the sun down, I'm under the gun now

Chorus:
On the road but I'm on the run
It ain’t no fun when you're under the gun
We made a deal but the dealer won and
I'm under the gun
On the road but I'm on the run
It ain’t no fun when you're under the gun
We made a deal but the dealer won and
I'm under the gun
Calling the sun down, I'm under the gun now
Calling the sun down, I'm under the gun now
