Capo 1
Just a Fmile down the Groad
And a Fstreet or two Faway
There's that Ffreckled missus that I
Gwant most every Fday
Out to the Fhome of her Gfather
I'm gonna Fdrag my sore old Ffeet
Tell him Fshe's the woman who can
GWake me from my Fsleep
She said Amkiss me
Lord, I lDmistened, but
I Amhaven't gone back Fsince
Though I Fcurse the mind for Gbuilding a proper Ffence
Now I will Froll, I will Gsuffer
Curse the Fsoil and curse the Fstones
Keep my eFyes a leaking for that Ggirl does love myF bones
FI've know her for a Gyear
Only Fseen her seven Fdays
One Fweek too many to Gkeep men like me Faway
She said Amkiss me
Lord, I lDmistened
Though I Amhaven't gone back Fsince
Though I Fcurse the mind for Gbuilding a proper Ffence
F Am
F Am
F
F
So three years Fafter, I found her Gdoorstep
Found her Fshoes and found her Fkin
They told me Fold grim reaper done Gcome and turned her Fin
Pouring Fliquor on the Gstone
That Fmarks my lost and Fgone
I will Fwhimper, wail, and Gsing her funeralF song

A quick attempt. Not entirely sure about the Am or the "eyes will be fixed" bit, but it
should be accurate besides that. Have fun.
