CAPO on the 3rd
D
Old catfish in the lake
We called him Big Jim
When I was a kid
G D A
my only wish was to get my line in him
G D
Skipped church one Sunday
G D
Went out and threw out my line
G D G D A
Jim took that hook pullin me right over the side
G D G D
Went driftin down past old tires and rusted cans of beer
G D G D A
The angel of the lake whispered in my ear
G D
Son before you choose your wish
G D
You better think first
G D Dm
Cause with every wish
G A D
There comes a curse
D
I fell in love
With beautiful Noreen
G D A
She was the prettiest thing this old town had ever seen
G D
But I grew jealous whenever another man
G D
Come walkin' down that line
G D A
My jealousy made me treat her mean and cruel
G D
She'd sigh "Bobby o Bobby,
G D
"You're such a fool
G D Dm
"Don't you know before you choose your wish
G D
"You better think first
G D Dm
"With every wish
G A D
"There comes a curse"
D
These days a I sit around
And laugh at the many rivers I cross
G D
But on the far banks
G D
There's always another forest
G A D
Where I man can get lost
G D
Tonight someone's waitin' with a gleam in her eye
G D
Though my heart's grown weary
G A D
And more than a little bit shy
G D
Tonight I'll drink from her waters and quench my thirst
Leave you angels to worry
G D
With every wish
