i got this from a bootleg video. no capo
GShe Cadd9walks through the cDorn leading Am7down to the rCiver.
And her Am7hair shone like gDold in the Cadd9hot morning sGun.
She took all the love that a poor boy could give her
And left me to die like the fox on the run.
Cadd9Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox)G on the run.
Cadd9Now everybody Gknows the Dreason for my Gfall
Cadd9This woman tempted Gme down in pA7aradise Dhall. (That doesn't sound too bad.)
Cadd9This woman tempted Gme and she tDook me for a Gride
Cadd9Now I'm like a lonely Gfox cause I Dneed a place to Ghide.
You know, she walks through the corn leading down to the river.
And her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun.
You know, she took all the love that a poor boy could give her
And left me to die like the fox on the run. (boy)
Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) on the run.
We'll drink a glass of wine and fortify the soul.
We'll talk about the world and friends we used to know. (great friends)
I've seen a string of girls who have put me on the floor.
The game is nearly over and my hounds are at my door.
You know, she walks through the corn leading down to the river.
And her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun.
You know, she took all the love that a poor boy could give her
And left me to die like the fox on the run.
Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) on the run.
Here is where the video got a little shoddy, and I had to
tab some of it by ear...so from here on is just how
I like to play it. they may actually play a little
bit of D in the Cadd9/G stanzas.
Cadd9Like a bird (like a bird) on a Dwire
Cadd9Like a drunk in a midnight cDhoir
Cadd9I'm tried (I'm tried) in my Dways
To be Gfree
Hit it!
PLAY THE REST OF THE SONG AS YOU WOULD THE CHORUS.
I wanna rock right now
I'm a Base and I came to get down
I'm not internationally known
But I'm known to rock the microphone
Because I get stupid, I mean outrageous
Stay away from me if you're contagious
'Cause I'm a man, no, I'm not the loser
To be an M.C. is what I chooser
Ladies love me, girls adore me
I mean even the ones who never saw me
Like the way that I rhyme at a show
The reason why, man, I don't know (I don't know) cause
It takes two (It takes two, It takes two) to make a thing go right
It takes two (It takes two, It takes two) to make it outta sight
