Fox On The Run
By Tom T. Hall

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
