Chord/Tab song: Highway Robbery

by Tanya Tucker

Intro A

Verse 1
[A]Okay Officer, I admit it, I was [D]speedin'
But [A]before you write me up, let me tell you the [E]reason
[A]I wasn't tryin' to outrun run you
I was [D]chasin' a guy with eyes of blue
Who [E]committed a crime back about a mile or [A]two

Verse 2
[A]I was cruisin' along when he pulled up out of [D]nowhere
He was [A]hotter than the Jag he drove and just one lane [E]over
He [A]aimed those angel eyes at me
And [D]smiled like we were meant to be
[E]Oh he stole my heart[F], [E]from a movin' car

CHORUS
It was [A]high[C]way [A]robbery,
He [D]grabbed my heart and took off on the [E]run
It was [F]high[C]way [D]robbery,
He ought to do time in my [F]arms for [E]what he's [A]done

Verse 3
[A]So hey Officer, how 'bout you unders[D]tandin'
Won't you [A]turn that blue light on and help me catch that [E]bandit
[A]He's got something that belongs to "T"
[D]I can't let him get away scot-free
[E]Oh its only right[F], [E]that he's mine tonight


CHORUS
It was [A]high[C]way [A]robbery,
He [D]grabbed my heart and took off on the [E]run
It was [F]high[C]way [D]robbery,
He ought to do time in my [F]arms for [E]what he's [A]done
It was [A]high[C]way [A]robbery,
He [D]grabbed my heart and took off on the [E]run
It was [F]high[C]way [D]robbery,
He ought to do time in my [F]arms for [E]what he's [A]done
He ought to do time in my [F]arms for [E]what he's [A]done

OUT
[A]Hey Officer, let's talk about this now.
[A]By the time you let me go that boy be all the way to Texas
[A]Sure was good lookin'
[A]By the way what color are your eyes.....
