Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Widow[C]maker, Widowmaker,
were the word[G]s so bright and big
Painted across the bumper
of a big [D]shiny [F#]rig[G]
Billy Mack kissed Wanda Ann,
then [D]climbed into his [G]rig
[C]Said [G]he'd be back a Tuesday night,
so [D]plan on something [G]big
That [C]big red diesel [G]roared to life,
and [D]Bill was hell -a [G]-bound
The wheels was hummin' one to ten,
as [D]they rolled out of [G]town
[C]Twenty -hundred [G]RPMs
were [D]showin' on the [G]tack
But no one knew this was the
last long [D]drive for Billy [G]Mack
[C]Widowmaker, Widowmaker,
it's [G]hard to understand
You're gonna make a widow
out of [D]pretty one [G]man
Just a few more miles
and Bill was [D]on that mountain [G]range
When did a hit of pick -up full of
[D]kids block over the [G]lanes
Bill [C]hit the air
and [G]then he felt his [D]trailer slide and sway
[G]The other driver made no move
to [D]get out of the [G]way
He [C]just had time to [G]think of Wanda
[D]as he fought the [G]wheel
Then Billy Mack was buried under
[D]twenty tons of [G]steel
[C]Widowmaker, Widowmaker,
it's [G]hard to understand
That Widowmaker made a widow
[D]out of one to [G]hand
One [C]life for ten has al[G]ways been
a [D]diesel driver's [G]code
That's why Billy slung that
[D]Widowmaker off the [G]road
That's why Billy slung that
widow [D]-maker off the road.
[G]
