Notorious [G] - Confederate Railroad

[Verse 1]
[G]Riding North on Interstate 75
With a nervous fading beauty sitting by his side
[C]And a pistol that he used to [G]pave the way
Down the long black stretches of a [D]dark highway

[Verse 2]
[G]Ray bought his future with a pound of lead
When he robbed a liquor store and left the clerk for dead
[C]That kid should have put the money [G]in the sack
But he didn't and now there ain't no [D]turning back

|[Chorus 1]
|He's a [C]desperate rider, he's a [G]Jesse James
|The [C]best that he could hope for is a [G]household name
|There [C]ain't nobody that a [G]man can trust
|When [D]all his headlines read, [G]notorious
|There [C]ain't nobody that a [G]man can trust
|When [D]all his headlines read, [G]notorious

[Verse 3]
[G]They pulled out of Soddy Daisy 'bout twelve o'clock
Took the heatstroke with the lights off to avoid the road block
[C]Ray killed the motor at the [G]county line
Changed his Tennessee plates to a [D]lost tag sign

[Verse 4]
[G]She would never ask what the boy had done
But said she'd be his hostage if he needed one
[C] Her momma raised her to be [G]loyal and true
And she figured that's the least that [D]she could do

[Verse 5]
[G] They were just outside of Knoxville when the lights flashed on
And the siren's starting howling like hell houndogs
[C]Ray popped that Firebird into [G]overdrive
And swore he'd never let them [D]take him alive

|[Chorus 3]
|He was a [C]desperate rider, he was [G]Jesse James
|The [C]best that he'd ever hope for was a [G]household name
|The [C]morning papers didn't [G]say too much
|But [D]his obituairy read, [G]notorious
|The [C]caption by his picture didn't [G]say too much
|But [D]his obituairy read, [G]notorious
|The [C]caption by his picture didn't [G]say too much
|But [D]his obituairy read, [G]notorious
