Intro : C#m(4x)-A-B

Verse 1:

Ricky was a young boy, he had a heart of stone
                                                   A                B
Lived 9 to 5 and worked his fingers to the bone
C#m
Just barely out of school came from the edge of town 

                                                   A               B

Fought like a switchblade so no one could take him down

A 

He had no money, ooh
F#m
No good at home
A                                                                B
He walked the streets a soldier, and he fought the world alone

And now its...

Verse 2: 

C#m                  A                    B
Tequila in his heartbeat, his veins burned gasoline
C#m                        A           B
It kept his motor running, But it never kept him clean
C#m
They say he loved adventure.
A          B                                A                                          B
Ricky's the wild one, He married trouble had a courtship with a gun
A                        F#m
Bang, bang shoot em' up, The party never ends
A                            B
You can't think of dying when that bottle is your best friend
And now it's...

A                                      F#m
Accidents will happen, they all heard Ricky say
A                                                         B
He fired his six-shot to the wind, that child blew a child away
