Banjo Tuned E, Capo 3, Key of A

Chorus:
  E            A
Short life of trouble
                      E
It's only wise that we part
                A
Short life of trouble
   E             B7      E
For a boy with a broken heart
 
Instrumental:
   E                A
You know what you promised
                         E
Not more than three weeks ago
                         A
You promised that you'd marry me
    E                      B7            E
Standing there by by your mama's kitchen door

Chorus:

Now you've broken your promise
So marry who you may
This old world is so big and so wide
I'll ramble back again someday

Chorus:
