Slow 

                        A                        D                        A                               A
There’s a cabin in the woods where I first met my true love

                     A                           A                       E                  E
She was seventeen and I was only twelve

                       A                                   A7                            D                         A
We were married five years later, then she left me for a sailor

                A                                   E                             A                 A
And I guess I’ll see them both again in Hell

Fast

There’s a crow inside the cabin and inside of him is Satan
It separates the Evil from the Good
And if my true love came back to me I’d surely be here waitin
With my shotgun in the cabin in the wood

Slow

Sometimes I get to thinking that maybe I am Jesus,
Though carpentry ain’t nothing that I done
And if I ever meet that sailor I will offer him forgiveness
Then I’ll offer him both barrels of my gun

Fast

There’s a cabin in the woods where I first met my true love
Though it’s twenty years since she last said goodbye
I keep her picture in my Bible with her name across the title
And I’ll love that girl until the day I die
Yes I’ll love that girl until the day she dies..
