Perfume Powder And Lead by Lonesome River Band
Perfume Powder And Lead
INTRO GGDG
G
We were married in the spring, she didn't want for anything
G D G
A lovin' husband, a little cabin, close to town
G
Workin' hard out on the farm, comin' in to all her charm
G D G
Until one day, when the stranger came around
G
It starts to rain can't work no more, run to the porch open the door
G D G
To their surprise I realize their little game
G
So what was I supposed to do, oh I could tell he'd been with you
G D G
It made me mad and I just couldn't stand the pain
Chorus:
C G
I can't believe what I have done, I killed them both with daddy's gun
G D G
As their bodies lay entangled in our bed
C G
He was the sheriffs only son, to me she was the only one
G D G
I smelled the perfume, the powder and the lead
G
Well my body starts to shake, begin to think about my fate
G D G
As I turn and start to stagger toward the door
G
I heard her take her final breath, I knew my sentence would be death
G D G
And so I threw that smokin' gun onto the floor
G
Now I sit here in this jail, and now my life's a livin hell
G D G
Since that awful dreadful crime I had to do
G
All her love she vowed to me, another man there'd never be
G D G
And in the end I'll have to die for loving you
Chorus:
I can't believe what I have done…
