Hunter Green The Handsome Family
[Dm]
Last [Dm]fall I hunted white-tail d[Gm]eer
my dog and gun with m[A]e[G/A] [F/A] [E/A]
I w[F]andered to a shady gr[C]ove
where [Bb]ivy gr[C]ew dark gr[F]een
where [Bb]ivy gr[C]ew dark gr[Dm]een
I r[Dm]aised my gun so careful[Gm]ly
and fired into the tr[A]ees[G/A] [F/A] [E/A]
then s[F]aw it was my true love f[C]ell
in a dr[Bb]ess of d[C]arkest gr[F]een
a dr[Bb]ess of d[C]arkest gr[Dm]een
Her e[Dm]yes reflected back the m[Gm]oon
as I carried her back to my c[A]ar[G/A] [F/A] [E/A]
but a[F]s I crossed the empty r[C]oad
was a d[Bb]ead deer [C]in my a[F]rms
a d[Bb]ead deer [C]in my a[Dm]rms
Next n[Dm]ight I rowed upon the w[Gm]aves
to catch a leaping f[A]ish[G/A] [F/A] [E/A]
but o[F]n the hook my lover's he[C]art
I p[Bb]ulled from b[C]riny d[F]epths
I p[Bb]ulled from br[C]iny d[Dm]epths
[Dm]As I lay her cold corpse d[Gm]own
in the bottom of my b[A]oat[G/A] [F/A] [E/A]
[F] it was a jumping f[C]ish
caught [Bb]in my n[C]ets and r[F]ope
caught [Bb]in my n[C]ets and r[Dm]ope
Third n[Dm]ight I spied a wild b[Gm]oar
charging madly through the tr[A]ees[G/A] [F/A] [E/A]
b[F]ut I raised not my gun to h[C]er
just l[Bb]et her c[C]ome to m[F]e
just l[Bb]et her r[C]un to [Dm]me
And [Dm]as I fell in mossy f[Gm]erns
as her teeth grabbed hold of [A]me[G/A] [F/A] [E/A]
it w[F]as the lips of my true l[C]ove
that k[Bb]issed me d[C]ark and gr[F]een
k[Bb]issed me d[C]ark and gr[Dm]een
[Dm]
