my Daddy was a handsome gambler he had a chain five miles long
C Am D C Am D
on every link a heart gets dangled of another maid he loved and wronged
Am G Am Em
he told to you some loving story he’d make you think he’d leave them true
C Am D C Am D
but love grows cold as love grows older and fades away like morning dew

Am G Am Em
i’d rather be in some dark hollow where the sun refused to shine
C Am D C Am D
than to live here in missouri with your memory always haunting my mind
Am G Am Em
come all ye fair and tender ladies take warning how your court your man
C Am D
they’re like a star on a summer morning
C Am D
first they appear then they’re gone again
