Well early in the autumn when, the lovely dove was flying
D                                            G     C      D
Mourning for his one true love, He can?t be blamed for crying..
             G      C     D
he can?t be blamed for crying
 D                                                      C
Well the rooster he got 20 gals, well he?s happy as a lark
D                                             G      C      D
Well he woke up in the morning time, put ?em all to bed at dark..
         G      C      D
Put ?em all to bed at dark

D

Well if you?d been true, if you?d been true
                           C
You better look me in the eye
       D
All I smell, is cheap perfume
     D        C          D
And Gin, and Smoke, and Lies

D                                                      C
Well Where were you last Saturday, all dressed up so pretty
D                                 G     C      D     G     C      D
With your blue eyed ballroom boy, in Oklahoma City.. in Oklahoma City

D                                                           C
Well a spade is for digging dirt, and an axe is made for chopping
D                                     G          C          D
Darling my hearts hard as nails they hammer in a hardwood coffin..
G       C        D
in a hardwood coffin

CHORUS    SOLO

D                                                     C
Ah way down in the bottom land, a big black crow is laughing
D                             G       C       D
No One ever go down there, wonder what has happened..
  G        C       D
wonder what has happened

D                                                    C
Well early in the autumn when, the lovely dove was flying
D                                            G     C      D
Mourning for his one true love, He can?t be blamed for crying..
             G      C     D
he can?t be blamed for crying
