[Intro]
Em Dm Em Dm
[Chorus]
Em Dm Em Dm
Pullin' away, he's pullin away
C F C
Now his wagons are loaded, he's pullin' away
[Verse 1]
C F C
Hard luck is the fortune of all woman kind
Em F
They're always controlled. They're always confined
C F
Controlled by their parents until they are wives
C F C
Then slaves of their husbands the rest of their lives
[Verse 2]
C F C
I once knew a girl and her story was sad
Em F
She always was courted by the wagoner lad
C F
He courted her truly by night and by day
C F C
Now his wagons are loaded. He's pullin' away
[Chorus]
Em Dm Em Dm
Pullin' away, he's pullin away
C F C
Now his wagons are loaded, he's pullin' away
[Verse 3]
C F C
Your parents don't like me. They think I'm too poor
Em F
They think I'm not worthy to enter your door
C F
Hard livin's my pleasure. My money's my own
C F C
and if they don't like me, they can leave me alone
[Bridge]
Em Dm Em Dm Em Dm G C
Long is the road. Dark is the sky. Look over your shoulder. He's wavin' goodbye
[Verse 4]
C F C
My wagon is loaded. My whip needs a mend
Em F
So sit down here by me for as long as you can
C F
My wagons are loaded. My whip's in my hand
C F C
So, fare thee well, darlin', I'm leavin' this land
[Chorus]
Em Dm Em Dm
Pullin' away, he's pullin away
C F C
Now his wagons are loaded, he's pullin' away
