[Verse 1]
C F
Ten miles down the nine mile road lived a man named Wilson
F C G
A farmer with two worthless sons but a daughter who was strong
Am C F
It’s said she had spiteful heart and that her love was poison
F C G Am
Dolly Wilson was her name and to her I was drawn
[Verse 2]
C F
She nursed the old man to his grave, soon after his wife married
F C G
The sons they farmed it to the ground till nothing there would grow
Am C F
So she packed her bags and headed north, bound for Harper’s Ferry
F C G Am
But settled down in Shepherd’s Town in a house on Can*l Road
[Chorus]
Am F C
Ten miles down the nine mile road
F C
Before I realized that
F C G Am
Dolly’s love was poison now it’s too far to turn back
Am F C
Ten miles down the nine mile road
F C
Waiting round the bend
F C G Am
Dolly Wilson’s poison love, here I come again
[Verse 3]
C F
Now I fell hard and Dolly Wilson made me feel so worthy
F C G
But anything that can make you feel that good can make you feel that bad
Am C F
She breathed hot words into my neck, scratched me without mercy
F C G Am
But called me by her brother’s name whenever she got mad
[Chorus]
Am F C
Ten miles down the nine mile road
F C
Before I realized that
F C G Am
Dolly’s love was poison now it’s too late to turn back
Am F C
Ten miles down the nine mile road
F C
Lying round the bend
F C G Am
Dolly Wilson’s poison love, here I come again
[Verse 4]
C F
Who can say what love weighs, but you know it’s heavy
F C G
In spite of her I carried it as far as I could go
Am C F
Dolly Wilson’s poison love only leaves me empty
F C G Am
And I get my fill of empty ten miles down the nine mile road
[Chorus]
Am F C
Ten miles down the nine mile road
F C
Before I realized that
F C G Am
Pleasing the unpleaseable would keep me coming back
Am F C
Ten miles down the nine mile road
F C
Lying round the bend
F C G Am
Dolly Wilson’s poison love, here I come again
