     C                  G           Dm           F
She walked through the corn leading down to the river,
     Dm               G           F           C
her hair shone like gold in the hot mornin' sun.
     C            G          Dm              F
She took all the love that a poor boy could give her,
    Dm          G          F          C
and left me to die like a fox on the run,
        Dm          F           Dm          C - G - Dm - C
Like a fox, like a fox, like a fox on the run.
    Dm         C         F             C
1. Everybody knows the reason for the fall,
          F             C         Dm        G
    when woman tempted me down in paradise hall.
         Dm             C              F             C
    This woman tempted me,  then she took me by surprise,
         Dm             C      Dm              G
    and like a lonely fox, I need a place to hide.

2. We'll drink a glass of wine, to fortify our souls,
           F              C          Dm                  G
    we'll talk about the world and friends we used to know.
      Dm               C               F              C
    I see a string of girls, who have put me on the floor,
         Dm              C           Dm               G
    the game is nearly up,  and the hounds are at my door.
