Young Widow Brown

	  		
verse 1 
G                              G7 
That Jimmy Brown died at just 25 
    C                          G 
And they lowered him under the ground 

Right at his head was a mark that had read 
                  D           G 
I leave the world young widow Brown 
                                     G7 
He left her for me now it's plain to see 
     C                 G 
Just why old Jim ain't around 

I know that I've tried but the man ain't alive 
                      D           G 
That can keep up with young widow Brown 

     C 
That woman she's crazy if she thinks 
               G         D       G     G7 
That I'll just keep on a hanging around 
    C 
I'd leave in a minute 'cept for one thing 
     G            D           G 
That one thing is young widow Brown 


verse 2 
G                                                G7 
In her high stepping style she's a going hog wild 
     C                           G 
This night life is a whooping me down 

But if I lose a place then I'm out of the race 
                D           G 
For kisses from young widow Brown 
                                        G7 
I must be getting old my walk's getting slow 
     C                  G 
Just barely can make it around 

I work night and day spend all of my pay 
                D           G 
On pretties for young widow Brown 

     C 
That woman she's crazy if she thinks 
               G         D       G     G7 
That I'll just keep on a hanging around 
    C 
I'd leave in a minute 'cept for one thing 
     G            D           G      G D 
That one thing is young widow Brown
