What A Way To Go

D I met him in Seattle, bellied up to a bottle G D Tellng lies in the Blue Moon Bar D His face was hard and traveled and as the lines unraveled G A D I saw a man who could laugh about his scars D He said I got shanghaied in Vegas by a painted woman A I got hog-tied by a hooker in Ohio D G I got derailed by a dancer down in Dallas D A D He said, women gonna be the death of me, but what a way to go D He said a girl named Nancy once tickled his fancy G D And backed it up with a hundred dollar smile D He laughed about that Madam Rue, she was into Voodoo G A D A little weird but she always drove him wild D He said I got tongue-tied by a teacher in Tallahassee A I got french-fried by a waitress in Idaho D G I got way-laid by a widow in Wyoming D A D He said, women gonna be the death of me, but what a way to go D He said I got shanghaied in Vegas by a painted woman A I got hog-tied by a hooker in Ohio D G I got derailed by a dancer down in Dallas D A D He said, women gonna be the death of me, but what a way to go D A D He said, women gonna be the death of me, but what a way to go
