Across The Great Divide Lyrics

G	 g/b	    c/e 	g      g/b

 Standin by your window in pain, a pistol in your

 C/e	g      g/b	     c/e

 Hand,  and i beg you, dear molly, girl,

 D

 Try and understand your man the best you can.

 

 G			     a7     c		       em	 g

 Across the great divide, just grab your hat, and take that ride

 A	   c			   em	   g

 Get yourself a bride, and bring your children down to the river side.

 

 G			c	     g			c

 I had a goal in my younger days, i nearly wrote my will

 G			c		d

 But i changed my mind for the better, i'm at the still, had my fill and i'm
fit to kill

 G		     c		  g		 c

 Pinball machine, and a queen, i nearly took a bust

 G 	      c 	      d

 Tried to keep my hands to myself, ya say it's a must, but who can ya trust?

 G			   c		     g			  c

 Harvest moon shinin' down from the sky, a weary sign for all

 G			   c	       d

 I'm gonna leave this one horse town, had t' stall till the fall, now i'm gonna
crawl!

 

 G   a   c   em g

 

 A	 c   g			      c

 Now molly dear, don't ya shed a tear

 G 		     c	  g

 Your time will surely come, you'll feed your man

 C 		   d

 Chicken ev'ry sunday, now tell me, hon, what-cha done with the gun

 

 G			  a7	 c		    em	      g

 Across the great divide, just grab your hat, and take that ride

 A	 c			 em	 g

 Get yourself a bride, and bring your children down to the river side.
