 F            C
Matt & Audie were a few fine folk,
      G                          Am
made love in the morning with a few high
hopes,
        F                C
They’d leave a note and kick some dirt,
      G              Am
in a town only good part time work

They bought an Astrovan and a loaded revolver
To head to Montana where the weathers colder
Or they might steer south where the rivers red
Only thing they need now is each other or dead

F                        C
Matt went to work nearly everyday and in
        G                 Am
one months they’ll be on their way,
F                   C
Audie prepared the van you see for
     G                 Am
a getaway bound for robbery

Chorus:
              F            C
So Won’t you load up this bag,
            G              Am
because my sweet Audie is tired,
    F             C           G                Am
I promised her a life and I swear to God I’ll fire
            F                C
Cause her stomach it keeps growling as
    G                 Am
my hands are callused rock
     F               C
I’d rather die a desperate man than
   G              Am
a man that gets caught

He made it out alive, and looked her in the eye
And he told his lover, "No more just scraping by
We’re gonna’ be richer than the big machine
I will buy you diamonds bigger
than than the stars at sea"

Chorus

Matt and Audie were a few fine folk
Made love in the morning with a few high hopes
They stand so brave in a house out East
And tonight Audie cooking herself a feast

Matt and Audie were a few fine folk
Made love in the morning with a few high hopes
