Piano intro: Em G D Am G D C
SOL RE SOL SIm LA7
My sister Sue and me were doing stunts with electric trains.
MIm RE DO MIm
She said she'd do my dishes so I handed her the reins.
RE DO SOL SOLmaj7 DO
And she engineered a collision steered by a hand-eye protege.
MIm RE DO
Before my train set started burnin' I heard my sister say:
(Chorus)
LA7sus4
Look straight at the coming disaster
MIm SOL
Realize what you've lost
RE LAm
You keep handin' out horseshoes
SOL RE DO
Horseshoes have gotta be tossed.
SOL RE DO
Horseshoes have gotta be tossed.
SOL RE SOL SIm LA7
I dreamed I went to heaven 'cause I told my lover lies.
MIm RE DO MIm
When I woke up I went to her and looked her in the eyes.
RE DO SOL SOLmaj7 DO
I said help me cry 'cause I can't deny this union's feeling wrong.
MIm RE DO
Then a flashback to the dream and angels singing songs.
(Chorus)
(Bridge: Am C G Am Cm G)
SOL RE SOL SIm LA7
Don't push the river, if you love it set it free.
MIm RE DO MIm
I said go on and see him, you can still come home to me.
RE DO SOL SOLmaj7 DO
I was satisfied God was on our side 'cause we're freer than the birds.
MIm RE DO
She sent me a letter, I didn't read it, I already knew the words.
(Chorus x 2)
MIm RE DO
Horseshoes have gotta be tossed. (repeat and fade)
