Am (x02210@1)I woke up this mornin in a ditch again, I swear that womans the devil's kin
F (133211@1)I went back home to get my stuff, what I came to find was proof enough
C (x32010@1)I seen her lying with the boy next door, I always knew she was a two bit whore
G (320003@1)    ...I still loved her

Am (x02210@1)I grabbed my duffel and some stuff from the back, and I went outside to the old spruce shack
F (133211@1)grabbed my rifle and some gasoline, I never thought I'd get that mean
C (x32010@1)if she'd only listened to what I said, there'd be no one missin and no one dead
G (320003@1)    ...and I mean it

CHORUS (faster pace)
    Am (x02210@1)my heart is pounding my fists are tight, full moon shinin on the dead of the night
   F (133211@1)I tried to remember somethin jesus said, the words of the devil rang through instead
         C (x32010@1)he said burn that woman dig a hole for the clown, my head is spinnin like a merry go round
    G (320003@1)i can't stop it

fiddle solo (same chords)

(back to slow pace)
Am (x02210@1)I done just as the devil said, I done it all without regret 
F (133211@1)I knew I should be feeling bad, I'll tell you flat out she made me mad
C (x32010@1)I still got her name tattooed across my calf, I think about her while looking back 
     G (320003@1)and think  ...I miss her

Am (x02210@1)now I listen to the words that the good lord says, on church on sunday with my new girlfriend
F (133211@1)she don't know about my past, I don't tell  she don't ask
C (x32010@1)somehow I've come to understand that the good lord has a master plan
G (320003@1)     ...and I believe him

CHORUS

fiddle solo

Am (x02210@1)well that's how it went down on that cold october night
F (133211@1)you know you cant always judge a person by how they look on the outside
C (x32010@1)everybodies got a story... that could make you weep
G (320003@1) ...
