    MODERN DAY BONNIE AND CLYDE    Travis Tritt

CHORUS:
             Dm                  G                           Dm
Well it's a long way to Richmond    Rolling North on ninety-five
        G                                            Dm
With a red head riding shot gun  And a pistol by my side
A                        Ab       G                    Dm
Tearing down the highway Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde


           Dm       G                     Dm
We met a truckstop    Johnson City, Tenne-see
        G                                            Dm
I was gasing up my fire bird When I hear her callin' me
             A                      Ab  G                       Dm
Said, which way are you headed boy?       Do you need some com-pany?
             Dm                    G                           Dm
She had me stopping at a QuickMart    'Fore we made it out of town
G                                                                  Dm
Next thing she was a-running at me  Telling me to lay that hammer down
                 A                  Ab G                            Dm
Cause there's a man right behind me      Doing his best to slow me down

"Yeah"   go to chorus, lead, "wooo"


       Dm                  G                        Dm
So we pulled up to a motel    In the middle of the night
           G                                               Dm
We were countin' all the money  Smokin' a stolen Marlboro packs
          A                    Ab G                              Dm 
Lord, we never saw them comin'      Till they read us both our rights

yeah
             Dm                  G                           Dm
Well it's a long way to Richmond    Rolling North on ninety-five
          G                                           Dm
With a sheriff right beside me  Pistol pointed at my side
            A               Ab         G                    Dm 
Such a disappointing ending For this modern day Bonnie and Clyde

(yeah, yeeeeeeeee) (hey yeah)
