| G | Cadd9 | D | Am7 | C | |
| She | walks through the c | orn leading | down to the r | iver. |
| Am7 | D | Cadd9 | G | |
| And her | hair shone like g | old in the | hot morning s | un. |
| She took all the love that a poor boy could give her |
| And left me to die like the fox on the run. |
| Cadd9 | G | |
| Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) | on the run. |
| Cadd9 | G | D | G | |
| Now everybody | knows the | reason for my | fall |
| Cadd9 | G | A7 | D | |
| This woman tempted | me down in p | aradise | hall. (That doesn't sound too bad.) |
| Cadd9 | G | D | G | |
| This woman tempted | me and she t | ook me for a | ride |
| Cadd9 | G | D | G | |
| Now I'm like a lonely | fox cause I | need a place to | hide. |
| You know, she walks through the corn leading down to the river. |
| And her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun. |
| You know, she took all the love that a poor boy could give her |
| And left me to die like the fox on the run. (boy) |
| Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) on the run. |
| We'll drink a glass of wine and fortify the soul. |
| We'll talk about the world and friends we used to know. (great friends) |
| I've seen a string of girls who have put me on the floor. |
| The game is nearly over and my hounds are at my door. |
| You know, she walks through the corn leading down to the river. |
| And her hair shone like gold in the hot morning sun. |
| You know, she took all the love that a poor boy could give her |
| And left me to die like the fox on the run. |
| Like the fox (like the fox, like the fox) on the run. |
| Here is where the video got a little shoddy, and I had to |
| tab some of it by ear...so from here on is just how |
| I like to play it. they may actually play a little |
| bit of D in the Cadd9/G stanzas. |
| Cadd9 | D | |
| Like a bird (like a bird) on a | wire |
| Cadd9 | D | |
| Like a drunk in a midnight c | hoir |
| Cadd9 | D | |
| I'm tried (I'm tried) in my | ways |
| G | |
| To be | free |
| Hit it! |
| PLAY THE REST OF THE SONG AS YOU WOULD THE CHORUS. |
| I wanna rock right now |
| I'm a Base and I came to get down |
| I'm not internationally known |
| But I'm known to rock the microphone |
| Because I get stupid, I mean outrageous |
| Stay away from me if you're contagious |
| 'Cause I'm a man, no, I'm not the loser |
| To be an M.C. is what I chooser |
| Ladies love me, girls adore me |
| I mean even the ones who never saw me |
| Like the way that I rhyme at a show |
| The reason why, man, I don't know (I don't know) cause |
| It takes two (It takes two, It takes two) to make a thing go right |
| It takes two (It takes two, It takes two) to make it outta sight |
