Rick in Macon   Everglades     in key of [G]
 
 
He was [G] born and raised around [D] Jacksonville.  A [C] nice young man, not the [G] kind to kill,  but a [G] jealous fight and a [C] flashin' blade [D] Sent him on the run to the [G] Everglades
[G] Runnin' like a [F] dog through the [G] Everglades
 
Now, the [G] posse went in and they [D] came back out.  They [C] said he'll die and there [G] ain't no doubt.  It's an [G] eye for an eye so the [C] debt is paid.  He [D] won't last long in the [G] Everglades
A [G] man can't [F] live in the [G] Everglades
 
{ CHORUS } - - - Where a [C] man can hide and [G] never be found.   And [D] have no fear of the [G] bayin' hounds.   But he [G] better keep movin' and [C] don't stand still - If the [D] skeeters don't get him then the [G] gators will
 
Now, the [G] years went by and his [D] girl was wed.  His [C] family gave him [G] up for dead.  But [G] now and then the [C] natives would say, They'd [D] seen him runnin' through the [G] Everglades.
[G] Runnin' like a [F] dog through the [G] Everglades
 
Now, he [G] never heard the news on the [D] radio.  He was [C] deep in the 'glades so he'll [G] never know.  His [G] runnin' and hidin' didn't [C] make much sense, for the [D] jury had ruled it was [G] self-defense.
[G] Runnin' like a [F] dog through the [G] Everglades
 
{ CHORUS }
[G] Runnin' like a [F] dog through the [G] Everglades
[G] Skippin' like a [F] frog through the [G] slimy bog
[G] Runnin' through the [F] trees from the [G] Everlys
