Intro
C E7 On the day when I was born F Am Daddy sat down and cried. F C G I had the mark just as plain as day; D7 G7 Which could not be denied. C E7 They say that Cain caught Abel F Am Rollin' loaded dice; F C G Ace of Spades behind his ear F E7 And him not thinkin' twice. Am Halfstep, Mississippi uptown toodeloo F C G Hello, baby, I'm gone, goodbye F C G Half a cup of Rock and Rye. F C G Farewell to you old Southern skies Am E7 I'm on my way, on my way.

If all you got to live for
Is what you left behind,
Get yourself a powder charge
And seal that silver mine.
Lost my boots in transit, babe,
A pile of smokin' leather.
I nailed a retread to my feet
And prayed for better weather.
They say that when your ship comes in,
The first man takes the sails;
The second takes the afterdeck,
The third the planks and rails
What's the point of callin' shots;
This cue ain't straight in line.
Cue ball's made of styrofoam
And no one's got the time.
A D A D Across the Rio Grandeeo, Across the lazy river.
