_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _
She [C] was raised in Kentucky [Gm] in a good Christian home.
They [Bb] had [F] plans for her future that [C] to them were carved in stone.
_ He came from West Virginia, [Gm] who worked down at the [Am] mill.
[F] From his tiny window [C] he could see her house up [Dm] on the hill. _ _
_ _ [C] The first time that he saw [Gm] her, she was in her Sunday dress.
[Bb] He came to [F] church in his working [C] clothes, trying to look his best.
_ Somewhere between the sermon [Gm] and the congregation's rise,
[Bb] they caught a [F] crystal vision of [C] their future in each [Dm] other's eyes.
[Bb] Across that big sandy river, [F] what's done has been done.
No [C] one knows who we are, no [Dm] one knows where we're from.
[Bb] We'll raise up a family, [F] we'll build us a home.
[C] But tonight, [Dbm] we're just shadows [Dm] in the moonlight. _
_ _ _ _ [C] The father heard a light aligned [Gm] against the bedroom wall.
[Bb] Came outside with [F] an pistol, [C] yelling, leave my child alone.
_ She ran for the wagon [Gm] while they struggled for the gun.
[Bb] It went off [F] like a cannon, [C] someone cried, my God, what [Dm] have I done?
[Bb] Across that big sandy river, [F] what's done has been done.
[C] No one knows who we are, [Dm] no one knows where [G] we're [F] from.
[Bb] We'll raise up a family, [F] we'll build us a home.
[C] But tonight, [Bb] we're just shadows [Dm] in the moonlight.
