[G] [F] [C]
[G] He rode into town [Am] and made me believe
[F] He spent half his life [C] just looking for me
[G] I thought he loved me, [Am] but boy I was wrong
[F] Cause he had his fun and [G] we were over [F] and [C] done
If it hadn't been for Cotton Eye Joe I'd have been married a long time [F] ago

I [G]

[G]
[F] [C] [G]
know you think [Am] he's heaven sent
[F] But he'll leave your heart [C] all broken and bent
[G] Trust me when I tell you [Am] to leave him alone
Cause [F] nothing good [N] ever came from Cotton Eye [C] Joe

Where did you come from, where did you [G] go?
Where did you [F] come from Cotton [Am] Eye Joe?
He'd go on dancing, I'd play the tale About a tall, dark little man with eyes so [F] pale
With a look he hooked every girl in town He'd get any other man just another [Am] rebound
I heard the story, thought it couldn't be true Till he wrote through here back in [F] 02
He broke my heart and he stole my [G] soul Making me another victim of Cotton Eye [A] Joe
