Em Am
I got a black widow spider for mama, Lord
Am C/G E
Got a diamond-backed rattler for a pa
Em Am
Well, I got me a woman down in New Or,leans
Am C/G E
Got a friend in Arkansas
Am Em
Got a morning full of make believe
Am B7
Got an evening full of time
[Chorus]
Em
I've got the hands, pretty lady
Am
Gonna make you grieve
Em B7 E
The Lovin' gonna make you mine
[Verse]
Em Am
Ain't never seen your town before
Am C/G E
And I won't be back again
Em Am
I need me a place to hide my face
Am C/G E
From the howlin' of the wind
Em Am
I got the blues sewn into my jacket sleeve
Am B7
Got a goatskin full of wine
[Chorus]
Em
I've got the hands, pretty lady
Am
Gonna make you grieve
Em B7 E
And The Lovin' gonna make you mine
[Verse]
Em Am
So light the lantern above your door
Am C/G E
And hold your curtains wide
Em Am
Take the ribbon from your hair
Am C/G E
And lay it by your side
Am Em
And I ain't looking for a lie to believe
Am B7
My own'll do me fine
[Chorus]
Em
I've got the hands, pretty lady
Am
Gonna make you grieve
Em B7 E
The Lovin' gonna make you mine
Em
I've got the hands, pretty lady
Am
Gonna make you grieve
Em B7 E
The Lovin' gonna make you mine
