This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Fourteen rivers

fourteen floods

send your body to the heavens above.

Don't get drunk

don't get dry

just bring your money next Saturday night.

Forty miles on a cattle trail

with a happy mule

and nothing on my mind

all my life I've been talking fast

taking all the things

that I should have let pass.

Throw my hat on a coffee mill

put another brick

in the fire place.

Well I don't know about you or me

but some got loose

back on down.
