Ballad Of Bonnie And Clyde[G] - Georgie Fame And The Blue Flames
[G] Bonnie and Clyde were [C] pretty lookin' [D7] people
But [C] I can tell you [D7] people, they were the [C] devil's [G] children,
[G] Bonnie and Clyde be-[C]gan their evil [D7] doin'
One [C] lazy after-[D7]noon down Sa-[C]vannah [G] way,
They [G] robbed a store, and [C] high-tailed outa that [G] town
Got [C] clean away in a [G] stolen [E7] car,
And [A7] waited till the [D7] heat died [G] down
[G] Bonnie and Clyde ad-[C]vanced their repu-[D7]tation
And [C] made the gradu-[D7]ation
Into the [C] banking [G] business.
"[G] Reach for the sky" sweet [C] talking Clyde would [D7] holler
As [C] Bonnie loaded [D7] dollars into the [C] dewlap [G] bag,
Now [G] one brave man - he [C] tried to take 'em a-[G]lone
They [C] left him lyin' in a [G] pool of [E7] blood,
And [A7] laughed about it [D7] all the way [G] home.
[G] Bonnie and Clyde got to [C] be public enemy [D7] number [G] one
[G] Running and hiding from [C7] ev'ry American [D7] lawman's [G] gun.
[E7] They used to laugh about [A7] dyin',
[D7] But deep inside 'em they [G] knew
[E7] That pretty soon they'd be [A7] lyin'
[D7] Beneath the ground together
[G7] Pushing up daisies to [C] welcome the sun and the [D7] morning [G] dew.
[G] Acting upon re-[C]liable infor-[D7]mation
A [C] fed'ral dep-[D7]tation laid a [C] deadly [G] ambush.
[G] When Bonnie and Clyde came [C] walking in the [D7] sunshine
A [C] half a dozen [D7] carbines opened [C] up on [G] them.
[G] Bonnie and Clyde, they [Cm] lived a lot to-[D7]gether
And [Cm] finally to-[D7]gether they [G] died
