A minorAm E minorEm D MajorD C majorC A minorAm G+G D MajorD  (2x)

[CHORUS]

C majorC     G+G     A minorAm
Oh Liza oh Liza its time
  C majorC     E minorEm     G+G
To make our run in the night
C majorC        G+G           A minorAm
Across the lower 40 and through the break in the pines
C majorC     E minorEm     D MajorD
Oh Liza oh Liza its time

[VERSE]
 A minorAm       E minorEm     D MajorD     C majorC
I met you in the spring one cold crazy day
   A minorAm      G+G      D MajorD
Snow falling with bright sunshine
 A minorAm       E minorEm     D MajorD          C majorC
I never understood the first words that you said
   A minorAm       G+G      D MajorD
Something about the blue in your mind


    E minorEm            D MajorD
And you told your father I was an evil man
    E minorEm                 D MajorD
And he cornered me at the feed store in town
    A minorAm         E minorEm        D MajorD        C majorC
He said “Don’t you go near Liza, boy, or I’ll put you in the ground”
A minorAm     G+G       D MajorD
All I could do was crack a smile


[CHORUS]

C majorC     G+G     A minorAm
Oh Liza oh Liza its time
  C majorC     E minorEm     G+G
To make our run in the night
C majorC        G+G           A minorAm
Across the lower 40 and through the break in the pines
C majorC     E minorEm     D MajorD
Oh Liza oh Liza its time

[VERSE]

 A minorAm         E minorEm     D MajorD     C majorC
I dreamed we danced a waltz up to the timberline
   A minorAm   G+G        D MajorD
And tiptoed along the power wires
 A minorAm         E minorEm     D MajorD     C majorC
Your brown hair was trailing us half a mile behind
  A minorAm  G+G        D MajorD
Oh Liza I dreamed you were mine


    E minorEm             D MajorD
But you told your brother I was an evil man
    E minorEm                 D MajorD
And he came at me with a machete in his hand
    A minorAm      E minorEm         D MajorD        C majorC
But he never saw my pistol, Lord, and when he hit the ground
   A minorAm        G+G      D MajorD
His eyes were shiny, silver and wild


[CHORUS]

C majorC     G+G     A minorAm
Oh Liza oh Liza you’re mine
  C majorC       E minorEm     G+G
I wouldn’t try to struggle or fight
C majorC          G+G        A minorAm
Across the swollen river and to the old abandoned mine
C majorC     E minorEm     D MajorD
Oh Liza oh Liza you’re mine


[OUTRO]

C majorC     E minorEm     D MajorD
Oh Liza oh Liza you’re mine
C majorC     E minorEm     D MajorD
Oh Liza oh Liza its time
C majorC     E minorEm     D MajorD
Oh Liza oh Liza you’re mine
