Letter To Laredo
Composição de (Joe Ely)
Intro:  HOT spanish flamenco guitar 
 
Verse 1: 
   Em           D 
As I was riding across the Mississippi 
  Em                  D 
I stopped there and I cried. 
  Em                D             G 
No use for a man to keep a mighty river 
G               D 
All damned up inside. 
 
Verse 2: 
I jumped bail from the Sweetwater County 
Now I'm on the run 
On my head's, a 5 number bounty 
For a crime, I never done. 
 
 
Chorus: 
          Bm 
Take this Letter to Laredo 
F# 
To the one I love 
Bm 
Tell her to stay low, 
F# 
'neath the clouds above 
    G                 D 
Her love's my only alibi 
     Bm              G 
It's for her love I lied 
  D           A 
Yeah,  yeah, yeah 
 
 
Verse 3: 
Why did Frankie have to pull that trigger 
Why did you have to hide 
Sherriff thinks I was standin' with her 
It's for her love I lied 
 
Love will make a free man a prisoner 
Make an honest man lie 
Love can be tough love can be tender 
It's my only alibi 
 
Chorus 
 
Break:  same chords as verse
