GIN, SMOKE, AND LIES D C Well early in the autumn when, the lovely dove was flying D G C D Mourning for his one true love, He can’t be blamed for crying.. G C D he can’t be blamed for crying D C Well the rooster he got 20 gals, well he’s happy as a lark D G C D Well he woke up in the morning time, put ‘em all to bed at dark.. G C D Put ‘em all to bed at dark D Well if you’d been true, if you’d been true C You better look me in the eye D All I smell, is cheap perfume D C D And Gin, and Smoke, and Lies D C Well Where were you last Saturday, all dressed up so pretty D G C D G C D With your blue eyed ballroom boy, in Oklahoma City.. in Oklahoma City D C Well a spade is for digging dirt, and an axe is made for chopping D G C D Darling my hearts hard as nails they hammer in a hardwood coffin.. G C D in a hardwood coffin Chorus SOLO D C Ah way down in the bottom land, a big black crow is laughing D G C D No One ever go down there, wonder what has happened.. G C D wonder what has happened D C Well early in the autumn when, the lovely dove was flying D G C D Mourning for his one true love, He can’t be blamed for crying.. G C D he can’t be blamed for crying Chorus X 2
