Verse 1
Met a (E major)
workin' (A minor) up the river (C major) ,
paddled (E minor) steamer called
(G major) the Cezan (A minor) ne
Beneath (E minor) gum tree and moonlight,
I proved I (G major) was a man
(A minor) We knuckled down,
we (C major) saved some dough,
we (E minor) bought a piece of land
(A minor) Had a (G major) slab hut and a (E minor) decent ballast (A minor) stand
But I woke up this morn (C major) ing,
my sweet river (E minor) girl was gone
(A minor) Her (E minor) wed ding ring, her summer dress
was all that (G major) she had on
(A minor) I tracked her to the sandy (C major) gate
where she did (E minor) saddle up and ride
(A minor) On a (G major) half -lame horse
with (E minor) stag out at her side (A minor)
Lord, I'm (C major) sorry for all my dust
(E minor) that's flying around
(A minor) And I'm so sorry (G major) , Lord,
(E minor) for all your creatures
I've ploughed to the ground
(A minor) And I'm sorry that I used (C major) your name
when she left me (E minor) in despair
(A minor) But a (G major) safe return,
this (E minor) is the plowman's (A minor) prayer (C major) (E minor) (A minor)
(G major) (E minor) (A minor) (G major) (C major) (E minor)
(A minor) (G major) (E minor) (A minor)
I left him lying there this morn (C major) ing,
he was (E minor) sleeping like a lo (A minor) g
I (G major) wouldn't be bashed and (E minor) beaten
and towed down to you like a dog
(A minor) You know I've had that all (C major) my life,
the (E minor) fists, the words, and (A minor) pain
He can (G major) think about it while (E minor)
he holds the (A minor) reins
Yeah, I'll hock that horse
and (C major) wedding ring,
(A minor) I'll (E minor) buy a ticket there
(A minor) And I'll (G major) go back up the (E minor) river
on the Rodney or the Clare
(A minor) I'll find a friend, I'll (C major) start again,
never (E minor) wed another man
(A minor) I'm (G major) through with men, Lord,
(E minor) hear me, yes I (A minor) am
Lord, I'm (C major) sorry for all my (E minor) dust
that's flying around
(A minor) And I'm so sorry (G major) , Lord,
(E minor) for all your creatures up
out to the ground
(A minor) And I'm sorry that I used (C major) your name
when you (E minor) left me in despair
(A minor) But a (G major) safe return,
this (E minor) is the plowman's (A minor) prayer
A (G major) safe return,
this (E minor) is the plowman's (A minor) prayer (C major)
(E minor) (A minor) (G major) (E minor) (A minor)
(C major) (E minor)
(A minor) You (G major)
(E minor) (A minor)
