Throwing Horse Shoes At The Moon
Recorded by Tom Russell

(Capo on 3)

Intro.: (G) (G/F#) (F7) (E7) (E7)

My (G)father was a (G/F#)gambler, he threw (F7)horseshoes at the (E7)moon
He (C)won a (G)million dollars, and (Em/F#)lost a million, (C)too
They repossessed the house, and (G)towed that Cadil-(C)lac
My (Am)daddy, he just (E)smiled and said, "One (F)day I'll win it (F#)back"

My (G)daddy bought that (G/F#)Cadillac off a (F7)Detroit motor (E7)line
Then he (C)drove it through his (G)home town, to (Em/F#)prove he hit his (C)prime
With hundred dollars bills in a (G)Saint Chris money (C)clip
And (Am)four kids starrin' (E)proudly from that (F)big ole sinkin' (F#)ship (D)
Throwin' horseshoes at the (Em)moon

(Chorus)
Boys, it's (C)mighty risky (G)odds
Some-(C)times ya hook the (G)milky way or the (F#)outstretched hands of (E)God
But (C)mostly they just fall into a (G)dark and dusty (C)hole
And the (Am)sound of fallin' (E)horse shoes (F)pulls upon your (F#)soul (D)
Throwin' horse shoes at the (Em)moon

My (G)daddy was a (G/F#)gambler but he (F7)had an honest (E7)heart
He (C)never did com-(G)plain when the (Em/F#)whole thing fell a-(C)part
He just swam that sea of alcohol till he (G)reached the other (C)side
How (Am)can ya be a (E)loser if you (F)never loss your (F#)pride? (D)
Throwin' horse shoes at the (Em)moon

(Chorus)
Boys, it's (C)mighty risky (G)odds
Some-(C)times ya hook the (G)milky way or the (F#)outstretched hands of (E)God
But (C)mostly they just fall into a (G)dark and dusty (C)hole
And the (Am)sound of fallin' (E)horse shoes (F)pulls upon your (F#)soul (D)
Throwin' horse shoes at the (Em)moon
