Widow Maker Chords

(ver. 1)
Jimmy Martin
[Intro]
N.C.
Widow Maker, Widow Maker
N.C.
Were the words so bright and big
N.C.
Painted 'cross the bumper of a shiny rig
 
[Verse 1]
C                                G                C
Billy Mack kissed Wanda Anne and climbed into his rig
     C                               G                 C     C7
Said he'd be back a-Tuesday night so plan on somethin' big
     F              C                  F             C
That big red diesel roared to life and Bill was L.A. bound
    C                                    G            C
The wheels were hummin' Wanda Anne as he rolled outta town
F          C          F             C
20 hundred RPMs were showing on the tach,
    C                                  G7             C
but no one knew this was the last long ride for Billy Mack
      F                       C
Widow Maker, Widow Maker only Bill could understand
    C                           G7           C
Was goin' to make a widow outta pretty Wanda Anne
 
[Instrumental]
C    G    C
 
[Verse 2]
C                                  G                C
Just a few more miles and Bill was on that mountain range
      C                           G                     C    C7
Where dead ahead a pickup full of kids blocked both the lanes
     F               C                F                 C
Bill hit the air and Then he felt his trailer slide and sway
        C                             G                  C  C7
And the pickup driver made no move To help him clear the way
   F                C              F                C
He just had time to think of Wanda as he fought the wheel
     C                           G          C
Then Billy Mack was buried under 20 tons of steel
    F                C             G              C
One life for ten has always been a diesel drivers code
C                                 G7            C
That's why Billy slung that Widow Maker off the road
