THE BLUEGRASS WIDOW
[G]It's been five years come this autumn, She remembers well the day Robert Earl Keen The [F]day the fever got him and [C]took him far a[G]way
Far away from always knowin' that the love they shared was true Far a[F]way the fiddlers bowin' "[C]Grass River [G]Blues"
It was in the dead of winter when her man first caught the chill It was [F]said he heard the angels singin' "[C]Cabin On the [G]Hill"
Through the springtime he was groanin' "maybe time to pass and go" By the [F]summer she was moanin' Good Old [C]Lover please come [G]home
#cutline# Now she [C]stands out in the midnight in the [G]moonlight all aglow She [C]prays to Carter Stanley, won't you [G]please tell Bill Monroe I'd rather [C]be in some dark hollow or some [G]dark, deep shady grove Than to [F]be a Bluegrass widow, [C]oh, oh [G]oh #cutline#
INSTRUMENTAL
[G]Will you miss me when I'm gone were his final words to her Darlin' [F]think of what you've been to me re[C]plied his Knoxville [G]girl
And the leaves had started turnin when his mind began to fail Then he [F]broke down in a breakdown now she [C]wears a long black [G]veil
