Em D C Em She said she'd do my dishes so I handed her the reins. D C G Gmaj7 C And she engineered a collision steered by a hand-eye protege. Em D C Before my train set started burnin' I heard my sister say: (Chorus) A7Sus4 Look straight at the coming disaster Em G Realize what you've lost D Am You keep handin' out horseshoes G D C Horseshoes have gotta be tossed. G D C Horseshoes have gotta be tossed. G D G Bm A7 I dreamed I went to heaven 'cause I told my lover lies. Em D C Em When I woke up I went to her and looked her in the eyes. D C G Gmaj7 C I said help me cry 'cause I can't deny this union's feeling wrong. Em D C Then a flashback to the dream and angels singing songs. (Chorus) (Bridge: Am C G Am Cm G) G D G Bm A7 Don't push the river, if you love it set it free. Em D C Em I said go on and see him, you can still come home to me. D C G Gmaj7 C I was satisfied God was on our side 'cause we're freer than the birds. Em D C She sent me a letter, I didn't read it, I already knew the words. (Chorus x 2) Em D C Horseshoes have gotta be tossed. (repeat and fade) A7Sus4 = x0203x
