Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Bill, [D]onc[Bb]e[C][Bb][G][Bb][D][G]
I was asleep at [C]the sawmill
[G]Talk about a poor [C]boy,
[G]talk about a poor boy
[C]Never [G]sol[C]ved a dol[G]lar bill
My work was so hard at [C]the sawmill
[G]Think about a poor boy,
[C]thi[G]nk about a poor boy
[C]Whe[G]n you go to wri[C]te your wil[G]l
I will [C]see my tear drops falling down
My wife left this sawmill town
She said sawmill wife had been a [D]sin
The gravy was too thin
And [G]I worked no more at t[C]he sawmill
Mer[G]cy on a poor boy,
[C]mer[G]cy on a poor boy
[C]Let[G] me have a d[C]ollar bill[G][Bb][C][Bb][G]
[D]And if [G]you bring your wife to the [C]sawmill
[G]I am on a p[C]leaser, I[G] am on a pleaser
[C]When [G]she wants a d[C]ollar [G]bill
They're not satisfied at the [C]sawmill
Cause [G]women like the blood,
[C]oh wom[G]en like the blood,
[C]yes[G] and women alw[C]ays wil[G]l
Oh [C]see my teardrop falling down,
my wife left this sawmill town
She said sawmill life had been a [D]sin
The gravy was too thin
and [G]I worked no more at t[C]he sawmill
A [G]mercy on a poor [C]boy,
[G]mercy on a poor [C]boy,
[G]let me have [C]a d[G]ollar bill.
A mercy on a poor [C]boy,
[G]mercy on a poor boy,
[C]let[G] me have a d[C]ollar [G]bill.

[Outro 1]
