Young Widow Brown

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

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

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

[Chorus]
Continues after the ad
     C
That woman she's crazy if she thinks
               G         D       
That I'll just keep on a hanging 
G     G7
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                                 
In her high stepping style she's a
               G7
 going hog wild
     C                          
This night life is a whooping me 
 G
down

But if I lose a place then I'm out 
of the race
                D           G
For kisses from young widow Brown
I must be getting old my walk's 
        G7
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

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