[Verse 1]
(play with intro)

C#m B C#m B
Ricky was a young boy, he had a heart of stone.

C#m B Asus2 Bsus4
Lived nine to five and he worked his fingers to the bone.

C#m B
Just barely out of school, came from the edge of town.

C#m B A5 B5 G#
Fought like a switch-blade so no-one could take him down, no!

A5 G# F#5 E F#5
He had no money, no, no good at home.

G#5 F# G# A5 B5
Walked the streets a soldier and he fought the world alone and now it's...


[Chorus]

C#5 A#5 E5 B5

B|--------------------------------|----0-------0-----------4-------|
G|--------6---------------2-------|--------------------------------|
D|----6-------6-------2-------2---|--------------------4-----------|
A|4---------------0---------------|----------------2-----------3---|
E|--------------------------------|0-------------------------------|

Eighteen and life, you got it. Eighteen and life, you know

Your crime is time, and it's eighteen and life to go !

Eighteen and life, you got it. Eighteen and life, you know

Your crime is time, and it's eighteen and life to go !

(finish with intro...)


[Verse 2]
(play with intro)

C#m B C#m B
Tequila in his heartbeat, his veins burned gasoline.

C#m B Asus2 Bsus4
It kept his motor running, but it never kept him clean.

C#m B C#m B
They said he loved adventure. Ricky's the wild one.

C#m B Asus2 Bsus4
He married trouble, had a courtship with a gun.

A5 F#5
Bang, bang shoot'em up. The party never ends.

G#5 F# G# A5 B5
You can't think of dying when the bottle's your best friend.


(Repeat chorus)


[Bridge]

(palm mute a C#5 chord during two measures and ...)

E5 B5
"Accidents will happen," they all heard Ricky say.

A5 B5
He fired his six shot to the wind, that child blew a child away.

(Repeat chorus)
