Piano intro: Em G D Am G D C

G D G Bm A7

My sister Sue and me were doing stunts with electric trains.

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)
