Old Silver died last Saturday evenin'

Lord, she buried 'em deep where they never would grow

Yeah, remembered the days when Old Silver was around

Old Silver had the magic and he carried the money
Em D C G
With the grace of a gambler and he lost it with ease
G C G
He knew his lines better, than a good carny barker
Em D C G
Wore the best damn boots that you ever have seen
Em D C G
He had the best snake-skin boots that you ever have seen
[Verse 4]

Now the lady she loved him and she never asked questions
Em D C G
Though she laid awake wonderin' on many a night

She swore she was leaving most every morning
Em D C G
But she always would kiss him when he turned out the light
Em D C G
She was always right there when he turned out the light
[Chorus]
C F C
'Cause Old Silver took the best of it with him
