Horseshoes

Written and recorded by Moxy Fruvous

From the album "Wood" (WEA CD-10616, 1995)

Transcribed August 1995 by Charlie Gibbs (Charlie_Gibbs@mindlink.bc.ca)

My sister Sue and me were doing stunts with electric trains.

She said she'd do my dishes so I handed her the reins.

And she engineered a collision steered by a hand-eye protege.

Before my train set started burnin' I heard my sister say:

(Chorus)

A7Sus4

Look straight at the coming disaster

Realize what you've lost

You keep handin' out horseshoes

Horseshoes have gotta be tossed.

Horseshoes have gotta be tossed.

I dreamed I went to heaven 'cause I told my lover lies.

When I woke up I went to her and looked her in the eyes.

I said help me cry 'cause I can't deny this union's feeling wrong.

Then a flashback to the dream and angels singing songs.

(Chorus)

Don't push the river, if you love it set it free.

I said go on and see him, you can still come home to me.

I was satisfied God was on our side 'cause we're freer than the birds.

She sent me a letter, I didn't read it, I already knew the words.

(Chorus x 2)

Horseshoes have gotta be tossed. (repeat and fade)
