Verse 1
It was the (D major)

He saw his future in a long (D major)
white cotton gown
Sittin' there at the church house,
she was gonna get (A major) baptized
They was gonna have dinner

Verse 2
So the very next (D major) Friday,
he got off at the sawmill (A major)
He slicked his hair back,
he had a pocket (D major) full of pay
When she opened up the front door,
he was grinnin' like a (A major) possum
As he handed her a daisy,
she heard (D major) him say
Verse 3
(D major)
Hey, let's go dancin' to the tune of
a twenty (G major) dol (D major) lar bill (G major) (D major)
They've got a fine (G major) fiddle band
at the barn (D major) up on the hill
And by midnight we just might wind
up dan (G major) cin' standin' still
(D major) By (G major) my daddy's lantern (A major) light,

After they got married, (D major)

They just sayin' their goodbye's,
(D major) he's a goin' to the big world war
'Bout a lifetime later,
she's a waitin' at the (A major) depot
He said I ain't a gonna leave you,

Said let's go dancin' to the tune
of a twenty (G major) dol (D major) lar bill (G major)

at (D major) the barn up on the hill

In the same little church house,

He bent down and he kissed her, he said,
I'm right be (A major) hind you, honey
It wasn't long 'til we laid
him in the ground

And by midnight they just might wind
up dan (G major) cin' standin' still (D major)
(G major) By the Father's lantern light, (A major)
