False Hearted Lovers Blues chords

[INTRO]
[A]

[VERSE]
[A]False hearts have been my downfall
Pretty women have [D]been my [A]craze
I'm sure my false hearted [D]lover
[A]Will [E]drive me to my lonesome [A]grave

They'll bite the hand that feeds them
Spend all the money [D]you can [A]save
From your heart strings weave silk [D]garter[A]s
[E]Build a dog house on your [A]grave

[CHORUS]
[A]When my earthly stay is over
Sink my dead body [D]in the [A]sea
Just tell my false hearted [D]lover
[A]That [E]the whales will watch [A]over me

Ragged clothes dropping from my body
The wolf howls [D]around my [A]door
The man who won my [D]darling [A]girl
Will feel [E]the bite of my forty [A]four

[A]Corn whiskey has wrecked my body
A false hearted lover is a [D]bearing on my [A]mind
I've roamed the whole world [D]over
[A]Pleasure [E]on earth I cannot [A]find

[CHORUS]
[A]When my earthly stay is over
Sink my dead body [D]in the [A]sea
Just tell my false hearted [D]lover
[A]That [E]the whales will watch [A]over me

[A]If I meet my darling girl again
I'll tell her all [D]about my [A]troubles
Give her these false hearted [D]lover's [A]blues
And [E]leave her stranded in the [A]shallows

[A]All men take this timely warning
It is both for [D]young and [A]old
Don't try to buy a [D]woman's [A]love
With the [E]last dollar of your [A]gold

[A]Take warning you fair young ladies
If your love and [D]honor you have [A]sold
The men will have no use [D]for [A]you
When your [E]dark hair turns to [A]gold

[CHORUS]
[A]When my earthly stay is over
Sink my dead body [D]in the [A]sea
Just tell my false hearted [D]lover
[A]That [E]the whales will watch [A]over me
