[Verse 1]
G D Just a mile down the road G C And a street or two away G There's that freckled missus that I D C G want most every day G D Out to the home of her father G C I'm gonna drag my sore old feet G Tell him she's the woman who can D C G Wake me from my sleep
[Chorus]
Bm She said kiss me Am Lord, I listened, but Em C I haven't gone back since G D C G Though I curse the mind for building a proper fence
[Verse 2]
G D Now I will roll, I will suffer G C Curse the soil and curse the stones G D C G Keep my eyes a leaking for that girl does love my bones G D I've know her for a year G C Only seen her seven days G D C G One week too many to keep men like me away
[Chorus]
Bm She said kiss me Am Lord, I listened Em C Though I haven't gone back since G D C G Though I curse the mind for building a proper fence

[Verse 3]
G D So three years after, I found her doorstep G C Found her shoes and found her kin G D C G They told me old grim reaper done come and turned her in G D Pouring liquor on the stone G C That marks my lost and gone G D C G I will whimper, wail, and sing her funeral song
