[Verse 1]
Stand[G]in' by [C]your window in pain
[G]A pistol in your h[C]and[G]
And I beg you, dear [C]Molly, [D]girl

man the best you can
[G]Across the great divid[A]e,
Just [C]grab your hat, and [Em]take that [G]ride
Get yourself a [A]bride
And [C]bring your children [Em]down to the river [G]side

[Verse 3]
I had a goal in my [C]younger days
[G]I nearly wrote my wil[C]l[G]
But I changed my [C]mind for the better
[D]I'm at the still, had my fill and I'm fit to kill

Just [C]grab your hat, and [Em]take that [G]ride
Get yourself a [A]bride
And [C]bring your children down
[Em]to the r[G]iver side

[Verse 4]
Pinball ma[C]chine, and a queen
[G]I nearly took a bus[C]t[G]
Tried to keep my [C]hands to myself,
[D]ya say it's a must
But who can [G]ya trust?
Harvest moon shinin' [C]down from the sky
[G]A weary sign for all[C]
[G]I'm gonna leave this one[C] horse tow[D]n
Had t' stall till the fall,
now I'm gonna crawl
[G]Across the great divid[A]e
[C]

Now Molly dear, don't ya [C]shed a tear
[G]Your time will surely com[C]e
[G]You'll feed your man

Get yourself a [A]bride
And [C]bring your children [Em]down to the
