G                F
I married me a  wife, 
F            G
she gave me trouble all my life
 G                   D             G
Left me out in the cold rain and snow.
 G          F   C        G
Rain and snoooooow, ooh oh lord
G                    D            G
Left me out in the cold rain and snow


[Verse]
G                F
She came down the stairs, 
F        G
combing back her long yellow hair
 G                      D        G
And her cheeks were as red as a rose
 G     F  C          G
As a roooooose ooh oh lord
G                       D        G
And her cheeks were as red as a rose

[Verse]
G                F
I've done all I can do, 
F           G
to try and get along with you
 G                     D            G
And I aint going to be treated this away
G      F  C          G
This awaaaaay, a oh lord
G                       D           G
And I aint going to be treated this away

[Verse]
G                 F
She came into the room, 
F                  G
where she met her final doom
 G                     D            G
And I aint going to be treated this away
G      F  C          G
This awaaaaaay, oh lord
G                       D           G
And I aint going to be treated this away

G
They sing this in F and I figured out the chords on my mandolin so I don't know what capo is used.
