_ _ _ _ _ _
Oh, if the sheriff came [F] without a reason why, _ [G] and took my house away from [C] me, _ _ _ I'd spend
my nights asleep [F] beneath the open sky, _
[G] with stones to make my pillow, just covered by a willow.
You know I've spent some nights [C] like this before, _ [G] but if you'd ever _ leave me, I know
[C] I couldn't make it anymore. _ _ _ _
If I got drunk and [F] gambled every cent away, _ _ and didn't have to [C] make it home, _ _ _ no matter
what you know I'm gonna [F] find my _ [G] way.
I'd let off a borrow to be rich tomorrow, you know some way I'm [C] gonna make it through.
_ _ [G] _
But if you'd ever leave me _
_ _ _ _ [C] _
without you, _ _ _ _ if I was sent out fighting in [F] a foreign war,
_ _ [G] to face some deadly [C] enemy, _ _ _ _ you bet your life that I'd be [F] coming home once more.
[G] _ My will to live will guide me, the love that burns inside me will light the pathway [C] to your door.
_ _ [G] _
But if you'd ever _ leave me, _ I _ [C] don't think I'd make it anymore. _ _ _ _

And now each night I sit [F] and drink my single wine, I pour a glass, it's [C] dropped by.
_ _ You've got to think I'm having [F] such a dandy time, _
[G] with music to surround me, my good friends
all around me, each night they come and scrape [C] me off the floor.
_ [G] They know you've gone and left me, _ _ _ _ [C] just can't make it anymore. _ _ _ _ _
So if the sheriff came [F] without a reason why, _ _ [G] and took my house away from [C] me, _ _ _ I'd spend
