Standard (EADGBE)
She walks through the corn leading down to the river
Her hair shone like gold in the hot mornin' sun
She took all the love that a poor boy could give her
And left me to die like a fox on the run
Like a fox, (like a fox, like a fox) on the run
Out here everybody knows the reason for the fall
When woman tempted me down in paradise hall
This woman tempted me then she took me for a ride
But like a lonely fox, boys I need a place to hide
(repeat chorus)
We'll drink a glass of wine boys to fortify our souls
We'll talk about the world and friends we used to know
I see a string of girls who have put me on the floor
The game is nearly over and the hounds are at my door
