Throwin' Horseshoes At The Moon Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]My [D]fat[F]her[Em]
[G]was a gamble[D]r.
He threw [F]horseshoes at the [Em]moon.
He [C]won a mil[G]lion dollars,
he [D]lost a million [C]two.
They repossessed the house,
they [G]towed the [C]Cadillac.
My [Am]daddy, he just [Em]smiled and said,
one [F]day I'll win it [D]back.
My [G]daddy bought that [D]Ca dillac
[G]off a De[F]troit motor [E]line.[Em]
And then he [C]drove it through his [G]hometown
[D]to prove he'd hit his [C]prime
With hundred -dollar bills
in a [G]St. Chris money [C]clip
And [Am]four kids staring [Em]proudly
from that [F]big ol' sinking [D]ship
Throwing horseshoes at the [Em]moon
Boys, it's [C]mighty [G]risky, ah
Sometimes [C]you hook the [G]Milky Way
[D]Or the outstretched hands of [Em]God
But [C]mostly they just fall to earth
In a [G]dark and a dusty [C]hole
And the [Am]sound of fallen [Em]horseshoes
It [F]pulls upon the [D]soul
Throwin' horseshoes at the [Em]moon[C][G]
[C][G][Em][C]
[G][C][Am][Em][F][D]
My [Gm]daddy [G]was a [D]gambler,
but he [F]had an honest [Em]heart
He [C]never did com[G]plain
when the [D]whole thing fell [C]apart
He just swam a sea of alcohol
till he [G]hit the other [C]side
How [Am]can you be a l[Em]oser,
if [F]you never lose your [D]pride?
Throwin' horseshoes at the [Em]moon.
Boys it's [C]mighty risky [G]odds,
sometimes [C]you hook the [G]milky way
or the [D]outstretched hands of [Em]God.
But [C]mostly they just falter
[G]in the dark in a dusty [C]hole
And the [Am]sound of fallen [Em]horseshoes,
it bones [F]upon the [D]soul
Throwing horseshoes [Em]at the m[C]oon
[G]Throw[D]ing horseshoes at the [G]moon you
