Hannah

Am   Am7/G   Fmaj7   E7   Am   Am7/G   Fmaj7   E7


    Am                               E7                Am - E7 - Am
Now Hannah was a bad girl, she had a heart as big as gold, 
    C                   E7/B              Am - E7 - Am
But Willie was a junkie, so the story's told.
     Dm
Yes, Hannah loved Willie, he was a man, 
    Am
She gave him everything that a woman can, 
             B7                                        E7
But you see, Willie was a loser, living from hand to hand. 
                      Am   Am7/G   Fmaj7   E7   Am   Am7/G   Fmaj7   E7
Willie was a loser, yeah.

Now Hannah got word that Willie was on the town.
She gonna shoot somebody 'fore the sun goes down.
She ran over to New Jersey, bought her a 38.
She was running up and down the streets looking for her mate.
Yes, poor Willie was a loser, for him it was too late.
Willie was a loser, yeah.

Now Hannah shot Willie, shot him three or four times,
And she got her face on the cover of The Sunday Times.
Now the judge said, "Hannah, we can't let this slide.
You shot your man; you're gonna be justified.
We're gonna stick you in jail as long as you're alive,
Even though he was a loser, yeah."

Now some may call it justice, others may call it fate.
Some was born too early, and others was born too late.
Yes, fighting is fighting, fun is fun.
She shot her man for the things he done.
But if you're gonna love somebody, you can't do it with a gun,
Even though he is a loser, yeah.
Makes no difference if he's a loser.
