What a Way to Go
By:  Ray Kennedy

D
I met him in Seattle, bellied up to a bottle
G			     D
Tellng lies in the Blue Moon Bar
D
His face was hard and traveled and as the lines unraveled,
G			A		D
I saw a man who could laugh about his scars

Chorus #1
D
He said I got Shanghied in Vegas by a painted woman
				   A
I got hog-tied by a red-head in Ohio
	D			   G
I got derailed by a dancer down in Dallas
	D				A			D
He said, women gonna be the death a me, but what a way to go


D
He said a girl named Nancy once tickled his fancy
G					D
And backed it up with a hundred dollar smile
D
He laughed about that Madam Rue, she was into Voodoo
	G		A		D
A little weird but she always drove him wild

D
He said I got tongue-tied by a teacher in Talahassee
D				       A
I got french-fried by a waitress in Idaho
	D			G
I got way-layed by a widow in Wyoming
	D				A		  D
He said, women gonna be the death a me, but what a way to go

1st chorus
