Death Valley Queen

[G]Death valley q[D]ueen wh[G]ere have you b[C]een
Since they cr[G]owned you in g[Em]lory
Filled y[G]our head with d[D]reams
But it s[G]till goes to s[D]how in every d[G]esert
There's a r[C]ose that's bloo[G]ming for a[D]ll to be s[G]een
I remember you [D]well from that [G]town
You did d[C]well with the [G]face of an [Em]angel
In a du[G]mp hot as h[D]ell
When I as[G]ked for a ki[D]ss
You ki[G]ndly dismi[C]ssed
So i le[G]ad my poor h[D]eart to the sl[G]aughter
T[D]ell me [G]dear wh[C]at did you [D]fear
I'd do you no wro[G]ng though no s[C]tranger to [D]sin
[G]So death valley q[C]ueen go ma[G]rry your k[C]ing
Or an [G]old maid you'll [D]end up for ce[G]rtain

Off I did set on my trail of regret
Where I thought of you now in your castle and crown
So I found me a whore with a face just like yours
After several gallons of porter
When I awoke, she had scarpered I was broke
Laying cold in the bed with a whale for a head
So death valley queen go marry your king
Or an old maid you'll end up for certain

Then the ba[D]ll dro[G]pped why eve[C]rything fe[G]ll by the [D]way
As your te[D]ardr[G]ops were fal[C]ling I forgot to s[D]ay
That [G]I have al[D]ways loved [G]you
Yeah [G]I have a[C]lways loved [G]you
Yeah [G]I  [D]     [G]       [C]
Yeah [G]I
I have al[C]ways loved you

When I returned downtrodden and burned
There were billy goats grazing
Where once you'd be found
So I hung out to dry
On this limb for a lie
Take me back for I'm cursed on the mainland
Tell me dear what did you fear
I'd do you no wrong though no stranger to sin
So death valley queen go marry your king
Or an old maid you'll end up for certain
I said death valley queen go marry your king
And a-roving I'll end up for certain
