D
Way down on the old panhandle
D                          G
That's where I met her you know
A
She moved here from Louisiana
A                                 D
And she could never let Louisiana go

Verse 2

D
She shot a fella down in Baton Rouge
D             G
And ran to Alabam'
G       A
But she found herself here in Texas
A                    D
All alone on the Rio Grande

Bridge

That's the way it was
A                 D
That's the way it was

Verse 3

D
And that's where she made our connection
D                          G
All the things she made me do
A
We ran from the cops we ran from the judge
A                                  D
But I couldn't think of anyone but you

Verse 4

D
So that's how I found myself right here
D
Doing time in the county jail
A
All because of that Louisiana girl
A                                D
Trying to find someone to go my bail

Chorus 1

D                 G
That's the way it was
D
I'd swear
D                                              A
And if it's not the truth baby I'm your millionaire
D                 G
That's the way it was
D
I swear
A       G  A
So baby please give me one more chance
A                 D
That's the way it was

My jailhouse lawyer spoke to me
D                      G
About an hour just yesterday
A
He couldn't believe the fix I'm in
A                                     D
And you know how I know crime doesn't pay

So hear my plea, listen to me
D                     G
I been in the pen too long
