[Intro]
G       G/B                C
Standing by your window in pain, 
G  G/B           C
a pistol in your hand
G    G/B            C   
and i beg you, dear molly, girl,
D
Try and understand your man the best you can.

[Chorus]
G                A7
Across the great divide
     C                  Em        G
just grab your hat, and take that ride
G              A7
Get yourself a bride
    C                   Em           G 
and bring your children down to the river side.

[Verse 1]
G                  C
I had a goal in my younger days,
G                 C
I nearly wrote my will
G                C
But I changed my mind for the better, 
D
I'm at the still, had my fill and I'm fit to kill

[Chorus]
G                A7
Across the great divide,
     C                  Em        G
just grab your hat, and take that ride
G              A7
Get yourself a bride, 
    C                   Em          G
and bring your children down to the river side.

[Verse 2]
G                C
Pinball machine, and a queen, 
G               C
I nearly took a bust
G                C
Tried to keep my hands to myself, 
D
ya say it's a must, but who can ya trust?

[Verse 3]
G                    C
Harvest moon shining down from the sky, 
G                C
a weary sign for all
G                    C
I'm gonna leave this one horse town, 
D
had to stall till the fall, now I'm gonna crawl

[Instrumental]
G                A7       C     Em     G
Across the great divide

[Verse 4]
G                        C
Now molly dear, don't ya shed a tear
G                     C
Your time will surely come, 
G                    C
you'll feed your man chicken every Sunday 
D
Now tell me, hon, whatcha done with the gun?

[Chorus]
G                A7
Across the great divide, 
     C                  Em        G
just grab your hat, and take that ride
G              A7
Get yourself a bride, 
    C                   Em                G
and bring your children down to the river side.

[Outro]
