Am                             C5  
Bruce and Ed and I walked into Old Pappy's Foodmart 
G5                                  F5            Am 
Bruce and Ed were brothers and they were not very smart 
Am                                    C5 
But I needed some men fast to help me with this one big score 
G5                          F5             Am 
Then I'd never have to rob another grocery store 
Am                        C5 
Fill the bag with money I said to the cashier 
G5                                F5               Am 
Fill the bag with money honey and we'll get out of here 
Am                                 C5  
But somebody tripped the alarm and then all Hell broke loose 
G5                                  F5                  Am 
The bag boy he pulled out a gun and blew a hole through Bruce 
Am                                           C5 
Ed caught the bag boy in the chest with both barrels from his twelve 
G5                                  F5             Am 
The bag boy flew back twenty feet into the produce shelf 
Am                         C5 
That was for my brother Ed shouted through his tears 
G5                                F5          Am 
Now we faced the electric chair instead of 15 years 


Am                                C5 
I grabbed that bag of money and I headed for the door 
G5                         F5               Am 
I didn't wanna die in some stinking grocery store 
Am                              C5 
But the parking lot was already crawlin' thick with cops 
G5                                                       F5             Am 
That what you get when you rob a store 'round the corner from the donut shop 
Am                             C5 
Sheriff Big Dick Turner he was runnin' the whole show 
G5                                            F5              Am 
He said throw your guns down come on out boys let them people go 
Am                                 C5 
You boys don't stand a chance your little heist has failed 
G5                                  F5              Am 
But I knew Big Dick Turner and we'd never reach his jail 
Am                                      C5 
Ed looked up through the window just to see what was going on 
G5                                    F5                    Am 
A bullet pierced his forehead and the back of Ed's head was gone 
Am                               C5 
The cashiers they were screaming Ed's brains were everywhere 
G5                                        F5             Am 
It seemed Big Dick was right there was no gettin' out of there 

Am                                      C5 
A car pulled up some folks got out - it was my mom and dad 
   G5                                    F5         Am 
My daddy yelled out kid you're the worst son I ever had 
Am                                   C5 
You're really in it this time you're really in it deep 
G5                                   F5               Am 
I hope they blow your brains out you good for nothing creep 
Am                             C5 
Sheriff Big Dick Turner yelled get 'em out of here 
    G5                                      F5                 Am 
And I sent the cashier to the stock room to bring me back some beer 
Am                              C5 
The family plan had failed plan B was coming soon 
G5                            F5           Am 
I was starring in my very own Dog Day Afternoon 


Am                               C5 
Then they brought a woman out my true love Madeline 
    G5                                F5              Am 
She left me seven months before and I hadn't seen her since 
Am                                 C5 
She left me for the bouncer at the bowling alley bar 
    G5                                F5                Am 
She left him two weeks later for some guy who sold used cars 
Am                                              C5 
She said Franky please come out of there you're in an awful jam 
G5                                  F5            Am 
Franky please come out of there and we can start again 
Am                            C5 
While you're away in prison I will wait faithfully 
G5                          F5              Am 
Franky I do love you please come on out for me 
       Am                                 C5 
Well I knew that she was lying 'cause she never told the truth 
G5                                       F5           Am 
I knew that I would get the chair they'd never let me loose 
Am                                       C5 
But for my true love Madeline I threw my gun out on the ground 
           G5                             F5                  Am 
I hollered Big Dick Turner I'm coming out please don't cut me down 


Am                                  C5 
Well they didn't give me death they gave me 60 years 
     G5                          F5               Am 
So I think it's safe to say that I'll be dying in here 
        Am                                   C5 
And Madeline and Big Dick Turner they're the hottest thing in town 
        G5                                     F5                  Am 
I was a love sick fool when I had the chance I should've shot them down.
