Chorus:
G D Am C
She walks through the corn leadin? down to the river
Am D C G
Her hair shone like gold in the hot mornin' sun
G D Am C
She took all the love that this poor boy could give her
Am D C G
And left me to die like a fox on the run
C G
Like a fox, (like a fox, like a fox) on the run
 
C G D G
Now everybody knows the reason for the fall
C G A7 D
When woman tempted man down in paradise hall
C G D G
This woman tempted me then she took me for a ride
C G D G
But like a weary fox, boys I need a place to hide
 
Chorus
 
We'll drink a glass of wine boys to fortify our souls
We'll talk about the world and friends we used to know
I see a string of girls who have put me on the floor
The game is nearly over and the hounds are at the door
 
Chorus
