INTRO:
E E
[Verse]
E
Well, I walked my sheriff's star on over to the bar
B
And I ordered me a shooter and a beer
The town was nice and quiet, just the way I like
E
I was thinking I was in the clear
E
So I dusted off my cowboy hat, yeah, and knocked a couple back
A
Then I saw her smile clear across the room
B
So I laid my money down, ordered up a couple rounds
E
And said, "How about a waltz, just me and you?"
[Chorus]
A
Don't go dancing with a woman who belongs to another man
E
'Cause you wouldn't steal no pony off of someone else's land
A
If ya go looking for trouble, it'll find you if it can
E B E
And don't go drinking with your shooting hand
[Verse]
E
Well, I stumbled through those swinging doors with whiskey on my mind
B
Saw my Sarah in the long arms of the law
So I reached for my pearl grip, hangin' there on my hip
E
And I sent a warning shot right through the wall
Well, I had him dead to rights, looking scared there in my sights
A
And I told him that this dance would be his last
B
Sheriff badge or not, you're 'bout to get shot
E
So when you get to Hell, if anybody asks
[Chorus]
A
Don't go dancing with a woman who belongs to another man
E
'Cause you wouldn't steal no pony off of someone else's land
A
If ya go looking for trouble, it'll find you if it can
E B E
And don't go drinking with your shooting hand
[Instrumental]
A E B E
[Verse]
E
With her hand in my left and a longneck in my right
B
That bastard had me caught, but I'll be damned
When he went to shoot me, the fear of God went through me
E
But not no bullet, turns out the gun was jammed
[Chorus]
A
Yeah, don't go dancing with a woman who belongs to another man
E
'Cause you wouldn't steal no pony off of someone else's land
A
If ya go looking for trouble, it'll find you if it can
E B E
So don't go shooting with your drinking hand
B E
Yeah, don't go drinking with your shooting hand
