verse 1 
G 
How she got that junk car runnin' God I'll never know 
     C                                           G 
It never ran but once and set to winters in the snow 
                      C                                      G 
Well imagine runnin' out on me has I lay sound asleep Allegheny 
A                                                         D 
My big mistake was thinkin' you we're something I could keep 
      C                                                  G 
You stole my winter's food supply and something else I fear 
     C                                         G 
My savin's in the mattress have strangely disappeared 
                       C                                           G 
Now those who know me best knows he who robs me best beware Allegheny 
A                                                                       D 
I'm gonna call up the dogs and hunt you down drag you back here by the hair 

     C 
Oh Allegheny something tells me you're dissatisfied 
                                            G 
Well is it a fact you we're my mail-order bride 
                                                   C                
There's a half of you that's French yeah and you crave a better style 
                                                             G 
And a half of you is Cherokee yeah and I've gone wild Allegheny 


verse 2 
A                                                    D 
She's got a head start on me as a crow flies half a day 
      C                                              G 
And unless I miss my guess she'll stop to rest in Monterey 
                          C                                      G 
If I take the Knoxville Highway thirteen hours it will be Allegheny 
A                                                         D 
I forgot I knew the shortcut I'll be there in less than three 
     C                                              G 
I signaled for the dogs to wait outside the hotel door 
                                      C                    G 
I described her to the desk clerk he said try the second floor 

But he mentioned she's got company 
                       C                 G 
And that marks the stranget's doom Allegheny 
A                                                              D 
I wish I was you so I could see my face when I bust into the room 

   C 
Oh Allegheny something tells me you're dissatisfied 
                                            G 
Well is it a fact you we're my mail-order bride 
                                                   C                
There's a half of you that's French yeah and you crave a better style 
                                                             G 
And a half of you is Cherokee yeah and I've gone wild Allegheny
