Intro:
Cadd9 G/B G/B(2x hammer on C) Dsus2 4x
[D]Now a country boy named Shorty
And a city boy named Dan,
had to prove who could run the fastest
to [E]win miss Lucy's[A] hand.
Now [D]Dan had all the money and he [G]also
had the looks.
But [D]Shorty must have had something boys,
that [A]can't be found in [D]books.
CHORUS:
Cut across [G]Shorty, Shorty, cut across.
That's what miss Lucy said.
Cut across [D]Shorty, Shorty, cut across..
it's [A]you that I wanna [D]wed.
Cadd9 G/B G/B(2x hammer on C) Dsus2 1x
Now, [D]Dan had been in training
About a week before the race
He made up his mind ol' Shorty, would [E]end
in second [A]place.
And [D]Dan with his long legs a-flyin' he left
[G]Shorty far behind.
And [D]Shorty heard him holler out..
Miss L[A]ucy, you'll soon be [D]mine!
CHORUS:
Well, Cut across [G]Shorty, Shorty, cut across
That's what miss Lucy said.
Cut across [D]Shorty, Shorty, cut across..
it's [A]you that I wanna [D]wed.
Solo:
Cadd9 G/B G/B(2x hammer on C) Dsus2 4x
But [D]Shorty wasn't worried,
there was a smile upon his face.
cause old [E]Lucy had fixed the [A]race.
And [D]just like that old story, about the [G]turtle
and the hare.
When [D]Dan crossed over the finish line,
he [A]found Shorty waiting [D]there.
CHORUS 2x:
Cut across [G]Shorty, Shorty, cut across.
That's what miss Lucy said.
Cut across [D]Shorty, Shorty, cut across..
it's [A]you that I wanna [D]wed...
