Verse 1:

Just two good old boys
Bb Bb7*
Never meanin' no harm
F
Beats all you ever saw
C7
Been in trouble with the law
F
Since the day they were born
Verse 2:
F
Straightenin' the curves
Bb Bb7*
Flatten' the hills
F C7
Someday the mountain might get 'em
F
But the law never will
Chorus:
C7(8th fret)
Makin' their way______ they only way they know how
F
That's just a little bit more than the law will allow
Verse 3 (original TV version):
F
Just two good old boys
Bb Bb7*
Wouldn't change if they could
F
Fightin' the system like

Two new modern day Robin Hood
Verse 3 (album version):
F
I'm a good old boy
Bb Bb7*
Y'know my Momma loves me
F
But she don't understand
C7
They kept on showing my hands
F
and not my face on TV.
*This Bb7 is not officially part of the song,
but it sounds effective if used.
